How to Install Your New Mac Ram/Memory
When you upgrade your Mac’s memory, make sure you order the right kind of RAM (we can help you to get the right memory) and check the instructions below for installation. In the old days, adding ram to a mac sometimes involved dismantling the whole machine (ie vaguely recall a horrible experience with the first of the iMacs (the coloured ones!) that involved taking out all of the innards bar the monitor to get to the ram slot!). These days, Apple has made it a sinch to add new memory. Which is a good thing, because most Macs need a memory boost!
If you haven't ordered your ram yet, buy it from MacRam and it should be with you within a few days!
Listed below are the types of Macs and the corresponding link to find the respective instruction manual on the Apple website. Some are missing because we haven't found them yet!
