Hi,
I have a simple question regarding my MBP mid 2010 15" i5.
If I open the computer to upgrade the memory capacity from 4Go to 8Go will it void the Apple warranty on my machine ?
Thank you for your help, I tried to be as clear and concise as possible.

Hi Nicolas,
Installing 3rd party RAM will not void your limited warranty or AppleCare Protection Plan. However...
If while removing the existing RAM or installing the new RAM you damage the internals of the machine due to force or neglect that would be considered accidental damage and not be covered by the limited one-year warranty or the AppleCare Protection Plan.
Secondly, Apple's coverage does not extend to cover your 3rd party RAM.

Upgrade of memory before end of Apple warranty
