Hi,
I just want to upgrade ram of my macbook pro md101hn/a. According to apple specification ram for this machine can be upgraded to 8 gb but on few website it is written that it can be upgraded to 16 gb without any problem, so can you please explain if I can upgrade it to 16gb or not if yes than how much will be the performance gain.
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)
ElCapitan and Sierra will install in as little as 2GB RAM. They can run that way provided you have an SSD as your boot drive.
MacOS runs much better in MORE than 4GB of RAM. If you plan to run Windows concurrently, you will need still more.
Yes, yo can go to 16 GB (2x8 GB) when that Mac was introduced there were no 8 GB chips available so Apple did not list any as being compatible.
Make sure that you get the memory from a place that says it will work in your model Mac since Macs are picky about memory. I am happy with memory from

For the future note that you posted in the Mac Pro desktop forum
If you install RAM beyond what Apple recommends, be certain to buy it from a Vendor who says:
"It works in your MAC,
or your money BACK."
It should work OK with 4 GB. Those app do not look like they will tax the memory that much
if i upgrade to 16gb. is it effective or not ? some people say that we can upgrade RAM to 16GB but it wont effect so. please let me know best way.
