Q: 1066 MHz RAM for 2012 MacBook Pro

Hey guys!

 

Just registered here, I'm hoping you can help me.

 

I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2012) which displays issues resembling RAM errors. The 2012 version uses 1600 MHz DDR3 modules.

I can get my hands on a 2009 model with the 1066 DDR3. I'm planning on switching the RAM blocks to see if that fixes the issue with the 2012 computer.

 

So my question is:

Will the 2012 MacBook work at all with 1066 MHz RAM installed? (Provided the RAM was the culprit, of course). If so, will there be any issues other than lower performance?

 

 

Thanks!

Terji

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5)
