What is the maximum amount of RAM you can put in a Mac?

Hello!

I have a laptop - MacBook ( 13-inch, Mid 2010 ), the site says that one die supports max 4gb of RAM,
here , but I found information that can be increased to 16gb, i.e. two of 8gb. Now I don't know where the truth is.
And tell me, is 4GB 1066MHz 1.5v DDR3 suitable ?

Thank you all in advance!

Any mid-2010 MacBook Pro i5 or i7 is limited to a maximum of 8GB RAM. If you have a 2010 MacBook Pro Core2Duo (13"), then you are in luck and you can upgrade to 16GB RAM.
The type of RAM needed is DDR3 PC3-8500 1066. I believe there is an EFI limitation in OS X Mountain Lion that will not allow the 2010 i5/i7 Macbook Pro's to be upgraded over 8GB RAM.

In short, the best way to find memory (and it used to be) is to know if a particular memory fits your beech.
If this is not possible, then you can look for dice on Avito and agree with the seller to test them on the laptop.
Or buy in a store where you can easily return them if they do not fit.
One question remains - do you need to invest in your dinosaur? Isn't it easier to sell and buy fresher, at least the first retinas? I looked at Avito, go nuts for their prices, they cost 20k.
And retina 2013 for 8GB is already - it costs 25 thousand. maybe it's easier for you to get a couple of generations newer than trying to squeeze the latest juices out of a laptop that doesn't even get an update.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
