Macbook pro 5.1 (late 2008?) RAM update - how much?
Hi there,
I'm very confused. Starting to feel the limit of 4gb on my MacBook pro, and interested in updating the RAM, but very confused about how much I can install, and the spec I need.
I am in the process of installing OSX Lion (so not sure if this updates any of the limitations I've read that older MacBook's have memory wise).
Here is my current spec:
Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,1
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2.8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MBP51.007E.B05
SMC Version (system): 1.33f8
I'd sincerly appreciate input from a knowledgeable source! How much RAM can I/should I install, and how perhaps more details on the type of RAM and where to get it from *UK.
Many thanks!
Deep.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7)
