Memory prices seem to go up and down like the price of oil. But buying the cheapest isn't always the best move. I researched Crucial and other brands of memory to work in my new Mac Mini. After enough testimonials, I chose Crucial. It was one third of the price Apple wanted (for a factory upgrade when buying new), and the reviews noted few complaints when installing in the sometimes quirky Mac machines. So far I am happy. A word of caution though: Re-installing the chipset in the Mac is trickier than it looks. You must take care to angle the modules up higher than you think is necessary. And then push in until it seats with a click. Otherwise, the machine won't boot.

Comments about Crucial Technology 4GB SO-DIMM Memory for Notebook:
I actually purchased this for my imac, late 2009 build because they are cross compatible memory. Be sure to check with the Excellent help from B&H and make sure you are buying the right memory for your year and make of your machine. Otherwise, it is super simple to install. It took all of about 10 minutes and now my machine has 16 gigs of memory ( I bought 4)... Yes! and at a great price, what more can you ask for. and now I am ready just after a few months to buy some more Crucial memory from my great Friends here at B&H and get a rocking machine...

These memory slots were for my Sony VAIO laptop that only has 4GB of memory.
I had no problem at all, they are up and running since 60 minutes before I received them.

Had B&H install these ram chips (in House)into a solidly spec'd out ASUS i7quad core laptop computer I just bought at B&H. The computer works really great and this modification makes my new computer much more powerful... Nice......

Comments about Crucial Technology 4GB SO-DIMM Memory for Notebook:
These seem to be the cheapest acceptable RAM for iMAC available, I installed them, my iMAC recognized them right afterwards and it just seems like multitasking is more fluid and everything runs overall a bit faster. I went from 4 gb RAM to 12 gb RAM I thought it was gonna be a ridiculous difference considering the it's 3 times the amount, but it's just significantly smoother and faster, well worth buying 2 of these for around 50 bucks.

This memory was purchased for a Toshiba Satellite a665 series. I did two 4gb to upgrade my 2gbs. System is running faster, but I haven't really run much of my graphics programs yet, but games are faster.

Comments about Crucial Technology 4GB SO-DIMM Memory for Notebook:
nothing too crazy to write. It's RAM. I had 2 GB; now I have 8. My computer's faster so it must be working! I would definitely recommend trying this upgrade before giving up on an older computer. Make sure you have a #00 screwdriver if you're working on a Macbook. You can find instructions on YouTube.

Installed in a Mac Mini 2.4GHz (2010 model). The Mini came with 2GB of RAM and I bought two of these (8GB max capacity). What an improvement in performance! No matter what application we use, the Mini opens the application almost instantly.
The installation was a simple procedure. I am very satisfied with the product.
