Upgrading RAM to the max(imum) on my work's Mac Mini (mid-2011)...
Hello.
4 GB of RAM is not enough for my Mac Mini (mid-2011; updated Mac OS X 10.7.5) since I multitask and run with VMware Fusion Pro (v6.0.2) for testing purposes. According to About This Mac, it has both memory slots in used (2 GB each; can't add more to it? 😟). I would like to maximimize this RAM out. According to its tiny hardcopy manual, I can go up to 8 GB of RAM in total (4 GB each) with:
-Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (SO-DIMM) format.
-1333 MHz, PC3-10600E, DDR3 complaint (DDR3 1333)
-Unbuffered and unregistered
It says I can order new RAM from Apple store, but I cannot seem to find it on apple.com? Did I miss it with my search and manual navigations? How about third parties like from Amazon, CDW, etc. if Apple's prices are higher? Are they safe/better to use?
Thank you in advance. 🙂
