Is Corsair RAM good quality?

Hi ASC's, I wanted to know if Corsair RAM is good quality in 2012?

I have a MacBook Pro late 2011 @2.4GHz Core i5, and I want to upgrade it to 16GB with this RAM: http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-16GB-2...op?ref=prid-20


I found this RAM thanks to a famous guy on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4jKS...NTJ1D71bvSJCIQ

The RAM works fine but some people in the comments on Amazon say it's bad quality RAM and some say it's good? Please help me, btw I don't have an SSD I have a 750GB HD, maybe this RAM only works on SSD's?

Thank you for your time.


Thomas

Just helped someone a few days ago with that RAM from that company and they had problems twice, but they bought the cheap stuff.


IMO it's best to open that Mac once, not three time or more times with bad RAM.


I buy top tier and tested RAM direct from Micron (the memory makers) at Crucial.com.


It's up to you. Kingston, Other World Computing are other places to go for RAM, just avoid the cheap stuff.
