Hello you guys.
I am working with a Mid 2010 Macbook Pro 2,53 GHz Intel Core i5, 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 an want to upgrade RAM to 8GB.
Can or should I use two 4GB SO DIMM DDRIII 1333 Units, or will that kill my Book and I better use two 1066 Units?
Can also someone recommend a fabric that works best?
Thanks in advance,
Philip (Germany)
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
you need to use the 1066 MHz. You mac would run it at the slower speed as opposed to the 1333 MHz anyway.

Mac's are very picky about RAM, and you should only use RAM spec'd specifically for your computer. Faster RAM may or may not work, and even if it did work you wouldn't receive the benefits of the faster RAM as your machine will default to the lower speed anyway.
Should work fine.
Have just upgraded my Macbook Pro 6,2 from the original 4 GB to 8 GB. The replacement RAM specifies 1333 MHz on the box, together with a smiley Mac face, and it works great, although at the lower bus speed as you would expect.
