Installing new SSD and RAM on Macbook Pro?

Question

Iron

Hello! I own a Macbook Pro 13 "2012, i5, 4 operative, hdd 500 gb. I bought it to work in xcode and others like it, but I think about running the code for a long time. I ask for advice from personal experience, which RAM bars to install (I heard that they set 16 and that's it works well) and which SSD (I tend to Samsung)?

Answer 1

16 worked for me, Mushkin memory, SSD was SanDisk. All without problems.

Answer 2

Macbook Pro 15 "2012 Mid
Installed 16 GB with two Crucial
SSD OCZ Vertex 4 240 GB dies, and rearranged the native HDD in optibay. Set up FusionDisk
It has been working for the fifth year :)
If Samsung SSD is not a problem to take, take it from the series with a red square :) Evo Pro if I'm not mistaken

Answer 3

I have the same macbook. Stand:
Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB
2x 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Corsair
