    By increasing my ram from 4 GB to 16 GB I am now able to open and work with all the applications I need. It really makes a huge difference. Also, I think it is better to spend $80 than buying a whole new laptop.

    I added it to a new laptop to give it more memory and ram and make it go faster than what the laptop came with. Which has been great so far I had the Greek squad to install it for me

    This RAM has been running in my 2011 MacBook pro for 6months now without any issues. Keep in mind if you send in your Mac for official service this ram is not on the "approved" list from Apple.

    I bought these RAM to upgrade a very old HP laptop. It was installed and recognized by the laptop immediately. Ran the RAM Diagnostic Check to make sure there are no problems. Passed all tests.

    Just like any PC options at Best Buy, it's obviously never the best you can get. Best Buy doesn't cater to real PC enthusiasts like Frys, Microcenter or even CompUSA did. But for what it's worth this is fine.

    If you need a boost in performance with Apple MacBook Pro - more RAM could be the solution as was the case for me. Even boosted performance in the MAC also. I would recommend this product.

    I installed these in my MacBook Pro which took the memory from 4GB to 16 GB. It is making a huge difference and the old memory fit into my wife's iMac. Way to go Apple!

    Although the product numbers match what is required, my computer crashes every 5" or so. The speed was great but not the crashes. Had to resort to old memory cards
