I've recently bought Logic Pro 7 (woo hoo!) and I now need to upgrade my imac, which is currently running OS 10.2.8, to Panther or Tiger, and I also need to upgrade my RAM from 256 to 512. But it looks like this gonna cost about £200 from the Apple shop. So my question is: is there a cheaper way? Can I get these things second-hand? Are ther disadvantages?
Thanks a lot. Chris |

Which white? The latest ?
If so you have to buy a pair of 1066 MHz DDR3 SDRAM (PC3-8500) modules. You can add 2x 4 GB modules even if Apple says it supports only 2x 2GB. You can verify the type: it's in the Apple Manual, and you can see the DDR type, and speed, via the apple menu>About this mac>more info>memory Standard PC SODIMM DDR3 1066 MHz will do it. If you have the choice, choose a CL with the smallest number like 7 (you should'nt find smaller). If it's not the latest macbook, it's not the same RAM model, so check it. -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
