What DDR RAM and how much can my 2017 MacBook Air hold? Hi, I have a 2017 MacBook Air, Serial Number ********** (A1466) I currently have 8gb of ram, but I need to upgrade it - I run a lot of apps and it takes up a lot of my ram. From what I collected on the internet - I can upgrade to 16gb of ram (is that the max I can put in this MacBook Air? If 16gb is the 'unfortunate max' - do you guys have any recommendations on what brand ram I should get and install? My "About this Mac" says the following for Memory: 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Do I have to upgrade to the same DDR? DDR3? And the same MHz, as listed above? If you guys have any recommendations and information on what the spec of the upgraded ram has to be - please let me know! It would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, – Jon [Edited by Moderator]

MacBook Pro 2012 ram upgrade will CK0 Ram work the same as YK0 Ram Hi, I am upgrading my MacBook Pro Mid 2012 13inch non retina with 8gb of ram. The model number is M471B1G73BH0-CK0 when I swap the ram out and power up the computer I get 3 dings for hardware incompatibly. I was checking Amazon and found the same ram with the same specs but the end of the model number is YK0 instead of CK0 the Amazon seller says this is compatible with my mac. Is there any fix that will allow my computer to work with this ram or should I just try and get the different ram from Amazon and if I do will it work. Thanks, John

Year of manufacture unclear. Upgrade old MacBook Pro RAM? I have an old MacBook Pro2,1 4GB and am wondering if memory can be expanded. I am unable to find reference for model number, and don't see anything on this site to help using these specs. Anyone?

Did you use Crucial's utility to find this? If so, you can trust Crucial.

If you didn't, I suggest you do that: https://uk.crucial.com/store/advisor

You're welcome in retrospect.

Yes I did.

Thank you, I was just checking because I have just bought some from eBay and they sent the wrong item!
