My MacBook Pro 1286A (Late 2008) came installed with 2GB of RAM. It’s in need of an update. According to Apple, the max it can handle is 4GB, but I’m reading online that some these can be upgraded to 8GB. If I can go to 8GB, I’d like to. Your input would be greatly appreciated!
Try using “Mactracker” (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mactracke...), it’s a free application that’ll tell you the maximum amount of ram your Mac will support, along with pretty much everything you need to know about every other Apple product ever made.
There is new firmware for the Late 2008 Macbook Pros that allow 8GB of ram to be supported.
