Good quality memory that was easy to install.
Won't bother looking anywhere else, ever again when it comes to memory. Assuming it keeps working as well as it is at the moment.

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook Pro 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15.4-inch) System:

I needed this to run multiple applications without a slowdown and now that I have it I'm more than satisfied. I run Final Cut Express Photoshop and After Effects all at once with no noticeable loss in performance except obviously when rendering scenes. Brilliant buy I'll be ordering RAM for my sisters old Powerbook because Crucial are seriously hard to beat unless you want gaming RAM...

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook Pro 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15.4-inch) System:

I bought this kit to replace the standard 2 GB RAM which came with my new MacBook Pro. 2 GB is not enough to run Windows applications under virtualisation (using Parallels) alongside the likes of Photoshop, Word and Dreamweaver running under Mac OS X Leopard but 4 GB does the job.

As normal with Crucial RAM, it works, is completely compatible and has never caused a moment's worry. Besides that, I got it the next day after ordering so two days after buying the MacBook Pro I had upgraded it.

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook Pro 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15.4-inch) System:

I primarily, use photoshop, Modeling and rendering software, so having has much ram as possible is a must. I would never buy a ram upgrade form apple themselves as the prices are ridiculous. Well done curial, you don't notice the change at first but when you load up work work or render your 3d images the increase in speed is really noticeable.

If, like me, you have a need to be running Vista inside a VMWare Fusion virtual machine, this upgrade will make a world of difference. Vista runs smoothly and my OSX apps don't seem to pause for breath now. Recommended.

I used the mac scanner to identify what memory I needed and placed the order. Watched a vid on youtube which shows how to install it. When the memory arrived I installed it without any probs. Crucial memory is excellent, never, ever, had any problems. I plan to order more for my other 2 macs. [...]

Comments about Crucial 4GB kit (2GBx2) Upgrade for a Apple MacBook Pro 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (15.4-inch) System:

At a third of the cost of the apple RAM, and the benefits you gain from doubling the total to 4GB's, i really dont know why you wouldnt want to buy this product. after you have spent close to £2k on the laptop, you shouldnt even bat an eyelid at the cost of this, and the extra will make a massive improvement to your work/gaming/whatever. If you say "i dont do that much stuff on my macbook pro" why did you buy a macbook pro? honestly, just buy this. it will be worth it.
