CORSAIR's 4GB, 8GB, and 16GB Mac memory upgrade kits will help your system work better. With hassle-free compatibility and renowned CORSAIR reliability and support, they're a smart performance investment.
Applications use memory, and some of the applications that run best on the Mac — photo and video editing — use lots of it. That's why outfitting your Mac with a CORSAIR Mac Memory upgrade kit is one of the best things you can do to maximize your system's performance and agility.
With a Mac that's been upgraded to the maximum amount of memory it supports, you'll spend less time waiting for your applications to buffer data to the hard drive, and more time working — or playing. Upgrading memory can also be a cost-effective way to get more life out of your older system: before you trade up to a new one, just upgrade the memory.
CORSAIR's Mac memory kits are tested at Apple Developer Compatibility Labs and work with most MacBook® Pro, iMac®, and Mac mini systems shipped in 2011.

A defective memory module(s) can cause various issues on your computer. These are just a few of the possible issues you may encounter. It is important to remember the issues below can also be caused by more than just defective memory.
How can we be sure that the memory is defective before starting the RMA exchange process? There are programs available that are designed to test the computer's memory. We recommend Memtest86+ to test your computer's memory.

Note: If you have recently added any new memory into the computer, we suggest you temporarily remove it to make sure it is not the cause of your issue before testing with Memtest. Please make sure you back up all the data from the USB drive before Memtest86+ installation as it will require a format.
