MacBook Core Duo RAM Replacement

5 분

Very easy

내 문제

I bought a used 2007 MacBook for $80. It only came with 1gb of RAM and I needed something that I could use for basic web coding and photoshop/illustrator design. I read that although officially this model only supports 3gb of RAM it will run more efficiently if you upgrade it to 4gb (two 2gb sticks of RAM). So I acquired the correct RAM from a friend and followed this guide. I didn't have access to any "proper" tools at the time, but I turned the battery lock with my thumbnail and used a small flathead screwdriver from an all-purpose tool to loosen and tighten the screws.

나의 수리

The repair went very smoothly. I read the guide entirely before starting, and even looked up a video on YouTube just so I could watch someone do it. No problems were encountered and the RAM upgrade was finished quickly and easily.

내 조언

My two main points of advice both involve inserting the new RAM. First, watch a video to make sure you're putting them in correctly, the little slit that's off-center goes to the left. Second, it's difficult to push the RAM in all the way. Don't be afraid to use a little force, the RAM should be pressed in until you feel some friction and it slides firmly into place.
