Rating: 5/5 Old Slow Laptop No More December 11, 2019 My old 2011 non-Retina MacBook Pro had become so slow and unpredictable that I cringed when thinking about using it. A deep system cleaning helped some but I felt a small investment in a RAM and SSD upgrade might be worth it. I replaced the 4 GB of factory RAM with 16 GB OWC RAM and at the same time replaced the 320 GB HD with a 500 GB SSD from macsales. Install was easy with the tools provided. I cloned my HD to the new SSD using SuperDuper!. The first time I powered up, everything was faster. Much faster. After a few weeks of usage, same: everything is super fast. Booting up, waking up, application opening/switching/quitting/etc, everything. It would be nice to know how much to attribute the performance changes to RAM vs SSD but for less than the price of a couple of cases of fancy beer, I'm thrilled to have what is essentially a brand new laptop. Now, my original battery is rather wimpy so maybe an upgrade there is in order.

Rating: 5/5 A hassle-free upgrade October 15, 2019 You cam read tons of internet review hunting for cheap compatible rams from the PC side but you still have to bear a certain degree of risks. I would say just buy OWC rams. Just install them and enjoy your Mac

Rating: 5/5 Great improvement May 1, 2019 As an international customer owning a "late 2012 27-inch iMac" I am very happy with this upgrade expansion from my original 8GB to 32GB.l I have found that almost all of my programs open and run a little faster and I can efficiently run several open applications at the same time. I am very happy with this product and the service I received from the team at OWC. I will buy from OWC again. Cheers

Rating: 5/5 Made a big difference in speed and ability of my MacBook Pro mid 2012 13 inch Laptop April 28, 2019 The speed and ability of my MacBook Pro increased and was able to handle a better work load to surf the net with more pages open but when I bought a SSD that made all things better. www.owc.com is the best place to obtain all upgrades I have found on the net while surfing and I come here often to see what the site has to offer. If I had more money in the bank this is where I would come and spend my money. Great prices and great service and very wonderful selection of electronic things to help with building or upgrading.

Rating: 5/5 Saved my 2012 Mac! December 19, 2018 A few weeks ago, my mid-2012 MacBook Pro suddenly shut down and started to beep out the code for a RAM error. Trying to turn it back on never lasted more than a few minutes before it shut down again, and none of the solutions suggested online related to reseating the RAM sticks worked.

This product did the trick! After a 5-minute install, my Mac was back to great working order.

A tip for anyone in a similar situation: A MacBook Pro can run fine on one stick of RAM. Try using each stick individually to see if one still works, and that will help you keep working while you wait for the replacement RAM to arrive.

Rating: 5/5 Added memory when changing hard drive November 19, 2018 When I switched to a solid state drive, I decided to double my memory while my MacBook was opened up. Easy installation and as usual OWC had easy to follow videos. The hardest part of the project was removing those tiny screws from tha back of the MacBook! I can’t really say if the increase in memory speeded things up since I switched to a solid state drive at the same time, but generally more memory is a good thing and the laptop is really flying now!

Rating: 5/5 Never crossed my mind November 11, 2018 It never crossed my mind that I could have 16GB of ram in my MacBook pro 9,2 until I saw it on the OWC site which i trust. I bought the 2x8GB Ram to replace my 2x4GB. Receive the package in good condition and installation was a breeze after watching the installation video.

This upgrade breathed a new life in the MacBook. It is definitely a more than welcomed upgrade.

Rating: 5/5 Easy to fit, works exactly as expected. November 5, 2018 The 16 GB memory was sent from OWC promptly but delivery within Australia was slow (expected). When it arrived, there was less than ten minutes from shutting down to restarting. As promised, my MacBook Pro recognised the full RAM and where the amount of RAM is paramount, my computer has sped up. Six years old and it has a new lease of life. The RAM is now just quietly doing its job!

Rating: 5/5 Fits perfectly - Improves Instantly October 31, 2018 OWC’s memory for my old MacBook Pro laptop had enabled me to avoid trading it in on a faster model. The memory loaded up instantly and functions perfectly right out of the box.

Rating: 5/5 So easy! October 30, 2018 I had visions of a real effort required to upgrade my MAC till I looked on the web site and saw that there was a simple pop out door. The package was delivered quickly and the change is immediate. The old girl was getting pretty slow and now it is like a new machine for a fraction of the cost. I'm not sure how long the processor will be able to take SW updates, but till then, it's all good.

Rating: 5/5 Satisfies that need for speed October 26, 2018 Lightning fast performance now on this 2012 MacBook Pro-! Maxing out the RAM to 16 gb, along with an SSD makes it perform better than ever imagined; running design, CAD and then CAM programs with Parallels, still no lag whatsoever. OWC's service is prompt and (again) delivered ahead of time. (A nice unexpected bonus included in the package to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of OWC was a mini screwdriver pen and a gift card voucher for an online winery- very cool!)

Rating: 5/5 Fast wake from sleep and take your computer back from Facebook October 15, 2018 Facebook is a bad product for a lot of reasons. In this case, because of how much of the computer's resources it uses to display a web page. It is often driving the browser up past 3GB. On a machine with only 8GB of RAM, that makes the performance reduce in other areas. I was going to upgrade to 16GB, but opted for 32GB for my spouse's computer and was told that it made a big difference. An easy way to combat the resource hogging Facebook.
