Installing RAM on the Macbook Pro - 25th Nov 2009

[suspekt29]

I am afraid to do this shit again on a laptop and Apple refuses to touch anything 3rd party yet they want to rape you if you buy the RAM from them. Crucial RAM for this model is 50 bucks. Apple wants 400. Fuck you Apple.

i dont get the point in upgrading ram on a mac book 4 gigs is like having a pc with 8 gigs due to the extreme efficiency of osx id say 6gigs is probably the most you will ever need from a mac b4 the physical hardware becomes completely obsolete.

[beiberboy1]

my mac literally set on fire after doing this stupid proccess........:|

[chelfc7]

@beiberboy1 LMAOOOOOOOOO *ahem* Are you serious? :/

[djbennett]

Done RAM changes quite a few times (Though this is an old video soi'm sure you have by now too :P). Just to say - Make sure you take the battery out too. Power will still be going through so you can shock yourself and the ram and kinda mess it up before even starting (Done that once... heh. woops).

Still - Nicely done :P

[grantmcconnaughey]

Very handy. Thanks a lot.

[develko]

Aren't you Scottish, by any chance? :-)

[rayray5340]

i was just wondering how much of a difference could you tell once you upgraded to the 4gb of ram?

[earlbee31]

crucial ram has gone up in price, currently £192 4 gig of ram.

[VideoJargon]

do you breach the warranty when you open up the MBP?

(sorry if you answered it in your video, b/c i just skipped to 5.56)

[VideoJargon]

@VideoJargon oops nvm. This question has been answered LOL

[liquidv]

Hey where did you get your wallpaper from?

[TheMRamstaff]

not good idea to use magnetic screwdriver on a magnetic sensitive hardware:-s

[Gabumon54321]

@TheMRamstaff It's powerful enough to screw something up?

[Digikid2007]

@TheMRamstaff I agree 100%......also you should have pulled the battery out before you installed the ram. just in case.

For me I only use corsair and Western Digital and Logitech.

[FullSolo]

What is RAM?

[fulmertime]

random accessible memory

[xelentoliver]

If I installed the ram myself on my new macbook would that void my applecare warranty?

[theunits3]

No it wouldnt

[xelentoliver]

Thanks just thought I would make sure!

[theunits3]

I would keep the RAM aside (the one which you take out your macbook) - just incase if you ever need to take it into the apple store, you can always shove it in if need be. But yeah, it wont void your warranty.

[einerus]

what about warranty?

[kindaawesome08]

thanks so much! I was wondering where a good place to get ram was. I'm going to check out crucial.

[paedar12]

what kind of screwdriver do you use? you just said precision screwdriver

[zomgbbqwth]

you use the kind that can unscrew the screws~ :D

so simple logic common sense also you dont know?

[DewGuy1999]

+1 Crucial. Great RAM, great customer service.

[ManticJohn]

i really need to upgrade my ram, is the difference noticable that much?

[iGlaswegian]

For sure, yes it is noticeable.

[ScottishMTBRider]

I just thought he may be gay because of his computer screen wallpaper. It's gay colors you see. He's know's i didn't mean to be rude.

[iGlaswegian]

lol don't worry, i never took it wrong. just to confirm - i'm not lol.

[ScottishMTBRider]

Thanks buddy. I'm sorry if i did offend you.

[ScottishMTBRider]

Great vid. Also I have a question for you and I don't want to be rude by asking you this. Are you gay?

[XxCamoManxX]

TBH, i don't know how u can so i don't want to be rude.. I'm hoping that was a joke because that was obviously meant to be rude!

Don't comment next time :)

[ScottishMTBRider]

On you're bike pal.

[thecoolcollector]

Quite a different system to the old plastic MacBooks :P

[baldheadedpriest]

Where did you get the screw driver set in glasgow?

[sushavd]

changing RAM on a notebook is much easier than i had expected. thanks for the tutorial/tips

[Mrshane2010]

dose it woid your warranty

[theunits3]

Nop, it doesnt

[KingRichieUK]

I've only used Kingston RAM, but I've never had any issues with it, so I'm going to keep using it! DELL use Kingston for upgrades, which again suggests Kingston is quality.

[theunits3]

Yep, i've had Kingston RAM in my previous Windows machine a few years back (no issues whatsoever).

[sweetypie000]

i've found orca logic the best for memory but once used crucial and had a pleasant enough experience. just preferred orcas memory finder

good vid

[nikeeweston]

my bro is a mac genius and they all buy their RAM from Crucial, and getting the static off ya hands is complete bollox...

i am lucky my bro installed my RAM..

[b00nsmoviesss]

good video man!!

[Kamberb891]

PUPPETPLANT - I was also going to say that, your usually suppose to be touching a piece of metal when you mess with the inside of the comupter so that you don't have any static on your hands.  Also laying the old ram on the plastic just like that is a no no...

[theunits3]

lol i guess a bit to late for the advice heh :D. Will keep in mind for future though, thanks for sharing. ive done the same procedure AGES ago on Windows PC's (im talking 5-6 years ago).

[puppetplant]

You need to be careful with ram, static on your hands can break the ram chips.

[hemal67]

Sweet bump up that ram!

[stunzy516]

you are so awesome

[romeo2009]

AWESOME NICE

[JonnyChups]

[romeo2009]
