Boost Your Memory
This chapter provides information and instructions for installing additional memory
and for removing and replacing the battery in your MacBook Pro.
Your computer has two memory slots that you access by removing the memory door
in the battery bay. Your MacBook Pro comes with a minimum of 1 gigabyte (GB) of
667 MHz Double Data Rate (DDR2) Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory
(SDRAM) installed. Both memory slots can accept an SDRAM module that meets the
following specifications:
 Double Data Rate Small Outline Dual Inline Memory Module (DDR2 SO-DIMM) format
 1.25 inch or smaller
 512 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB
 200-pin
 PC2-5300 DDR2 667 MHz Type RAM
Depending on the configuration of the MacBook Pro you purchased, both memory
slots might already be full. You can add 1 GB or 2 GB memory modules for a maximum
of 3 GB of memory.
WARNING:
Apple recommends that you have an Apple-certified technician install
memory. Consult the service and support information that came with your computer
for information about how to contact Apple for service. If you attempt to install
memory and damage your equipment, such damage is not covered by the limited
warranty on your computer.
