I upgraded from 6gb to this 8gb and what a difference. This is by far the best money you can spend to upgrade your computer. With the 6gb I could run lightroom and photoshop and that was about all. Now I have no problem running them and Spotify and email and my browser. 2gb made a world of difference for me.

I purchased the Crucial Technology 16GB (2x8GB) 204-pin SODIMM DDR3 PC3-10600 to upgrade my mid-2011 iMac. Works great. Very tight fit, must use some force to install. I was afraid of damaging the cards so I didn't press firmly enough to properly seat the cards. It will be obvious once they seat. If they don't snap into place they are not properly seated.

Works without problem. Anyway, three years ago I bought this exact pair only half thr price of the moment. It’s crazy how the price goes up over time.

Tripling the memory of a 2015 27" iMac took all of 5 minutes. With a restart, the new memory was ready to go. The price was right with Adorama, and the memory was drop shipped from Crucial quickly.

I got these for ram upgrade on my Synology NAS. They fit well and working nicely. Great price and fast shipping!

RAM arrived intact and installed easily. However, I was sad to learn that my 32-bit PC OS (Windows 7 Pro) cannot handle more than 4GB (3.24GB usable) RAM. So, this upgrade was totally worthless for me. For somebody with a 64-bit OS, I'm sure it would have worked great.

My desktop just died so instead buying a new one I decided to upgrade the RAM on my laptop to make it last as long as possible. To make sure you're buying the correct RAM for your system, please be sure to use Crucial's system scan. As for Adorama, this was a smooth transaction from start to finish. Their customer service is fantastic. I'll definitely return for purchase purchases. Keep up the good works guys!!!

Always reliable, we never use anything else. Mac, PC, Laptop, Desktop, Server- always Crucial memory. We would rather go without than use a different brand.

Running in my 2011 iMac for several weeks now, no problems at all. Ran Apple's hardware test for about three hours, no errors. Shipped almost immediately at a substantially lower price than buying direct from Crucial. What's not to like?

Upgraded an early 2011 13" Macbook Pro from 4 GB (2x2GB) to 16 GB (2x8GB). The computer runs well now since it is no longer constantly swapping when the browser is open. I think 8GB (2x4GB) would have also made a dramatic improvement but decided to go to the maximum. Highly recommended for those wanting to put new life into a slightly older Macbook Pro.

After a really bad experience upgrading my 13" early 2011 Mac Book Pro with non-Apple certified ram, I looked for an affordable option to paying their prices. Adorama had one and I jumped at it. It offered free expedited delivery (ordered Friday afternoon, arrived in Monday's mail) and my computer speed has increased dramatically. I have always had great service from Adorama, and highly recommend them and this RAM upgrade.

This chip sped up my computer a least three times faster. Would highly recommend it it anyone who like to get things done without long wait periods between switching from one program to another.

Tough to review RAM since it either works or it doesn't. I had used the Crucial site to verify this was compatible with my older Lenovo G560 laptop and it was - this is the maximum supported 8Gb. Simply replaced the existing 2 * 2Gb modules with these and booted right up no issue. Just how a RAM upgrade is supposed to be.

Surprised to find memory for my HP laptop on this site but decided to give it a try. Memory was described accurately and works perfectly in my laptop. Great price, fast shipping.

Added 16GB to my Imac and couldn't be happier

My Macbook Pro has been running great for almost 6 years but with Mavericks and the new Yosemite update looming from Apple the 4GB of memory wasn't cutting it. 4GB of memory will run Mavericks but load anything flash based or have multiple programs going at once and you'll constantly see the swirly rainbow. Luckily Apple released an upgraded firmware a few years ago to allow late 2008 model Macbook Pro's to be able to use the full 8GB instead of the 6GB limit before the new firmware. I've only been using the upgraded memory for about two weeks but coupled with a solid state drive the upgrade to 8GB memory has made using my Macbook Pro an enjoyable experience again. I think i might get another year or two out of this laptop with just those two upgrades.

Crucial 16 GB SODIMM DDR3L
By CRAIG U.
Product came quickly. Very easy to install. Excellent customer service.
Notebook modules that operates at speeds up to 1600 MT/s and has a CL11 latency. It is dual voltage and can operate at 1.35V or 1.5V. It is Unbuffered and is non-ECC. It conforms to the industry standard SODIMM layout of 204 pins and is compatible with computers that take DDR3 SODIMM memory. To use DDR3 memory, your system must have both a 204-pin SODIMM slot and a chipset that supports DDR3 memory. A DDR3 SODIMM will not fit into DDR2 or DDR memory sockets.
SODIMMs are smaller and thinner than regular DIMMs and the 204-pin SODIMM PCBs are always ~2.6 inches long and are usually around 1.18 inches high (though the heights can vary slightly). They consist of a number of memory components (usually black) that are attached to a printed circuit board (usually green). The number of memory components on a 204-pin SODIMM's printed circuit board (PCB) can vary, but the PCB will always have 102 pins on the front and the back both, for a total of 204 pins. The gold pins on the bottom of the SODIMM provide the connection between the memory module and the memory socket.
Memory spec terms
If you're not sure if a module is right for your system, use the Crucial Memory Advisor tool for a list of guaranteed compatible modules.
NON-ECC/Non-parity
Most desktop and laptop computers take NON-ECC or Non-parity memory.
ECC/Parity
ECC or parity modules look for errors in data and are most often found in servers and other mission-critical applications used by large networks and businesses.
Unbuffered
Most PCs and workstations use unbuffered memory which is faster than registered memory.
Registered/Buffered
Registered or buffered modules delay all information transferred to the module by one clock cycle. This type of memory is primarily used in servers.
Fully buffered
Designed for next-generation servers, features an advanced memory buffer.
CL
CAS (column address strobe) latency, which is the number of clock cycles it takes before data starts to flow after a command is received. Lower CL is faster. Modules with different CL can be mixed on a system, but the system will only run at the highest (slowest) CL.
Component configuration
(For example: 64Meg x 64) Indicates the size of the memory chip components on the module.
Voltage
For example 2.6V. Indicates the power used by the module. The lower the better.
