I have a Mid 2010 iMac ( 21.5 Inch ) - How do I upgrade it's RAM to 16GB

I have seen the process on how to remove the memory access panel and add more RAM, but i am having issues on which is the right sort of memory required for my iMac...


i have selected this...

i don't know if this is the correct one or not...

if it is not then please tell me which sort of memory should i get and if what i have selected is correct than is there anything better than my selection?

a big thanks in advance.


here's the link to what i have found :

i can purchase from Amazon.com as well if this isn't the correct one or if something better is available on Amazon.com.

I too have a mid 2010 iMac, 27 inch and am considering upgrading to 16GB RAM. I've read a couple long threads that babowa has linked to a thread I started a few weeks ago, and they've all seemed to have problems with 16GB with the same iMacs. One user posted that 4x4G from Crucial worked fine for him. It has been a while now since those thread have been updated and I wanted to know: Would 4x4GB from Crucial work with my 2010 27" iMac? Has Apple since fixed the problem with a firmware update?
