It depends on the mac model number. Go out to the Apple site and look up your model number and see what the appropriate ram choice is for that model.

I am using a 500Gb hard drive (the original that came with the Mac). In the original spot I've installed a 320Gb SSD drive. But I believe that if the Hard Drive has the same form factor, it doesn't matter the capacity.

I upgraded both the ram and the hard drive to a solid state drive.But bewarned it takes ddr2 ram which cost twice as much as ddr3 ram.Also I recommend getting this macbook because it heats up very fast and barely can run a 1080p YouTube video.You're better off saving you money for a better laptop.

No the mini uses laptop memory. As far as Mac go this specific memory is only for the MacPro and maybe an Xserve... Not sure about the Xserve though

cd drives are cd drives. Unless you have something really off the wall that you got for $5 from a knock-off brand company in china, chances are it will work perfectly. I use mine with a mac mini. So you are most likely set to get it.

Not really sure on this one but perhaps you could ask the seller. Usually I just go to iFixit website and identify the Mac there and the site usually tells you what memory works and they also sell memory. First I would ask Komputerbay, then you might have to ask elsewhere perhaps on a Mac forum. The ad page for this memory says it works with Intel Macs. Is your Mac Intel or Power PC - something you need to know to proceed perhaps. Good luck!

The Mini is very popular for this purpose. Several friends use them (even the previous version) and love them. I'm planning to buy one myself in the next few weeks. I get full 1080p when attaching my MacBook, so I expect no different from the Mini. But I would get it with 2 GB of RAM (you can add it later or order direct from Apple with the RAM upgrade as a build-to-order option).

Ryan: I am very interested in finding a case, possibly one with a slot load drive. I read you mentioned a case you found but where's the picture of the case? I would love to see it if you could please provide me a link or photo. Thanks so much. -cindy

Imacs normally have 4 SO-DIMM DDR3 SDRAM. You need to make sure the number of pins are correct. I don't normally work with macs. But what i would do is is ooen the back check to see what is already there and if u have extra slots left over to add, get the brand of ram you already have and check to see if they have them available online and just add more. This is the best way to check what brand or model of ram you have in your imac.

i Bought OWC 240GB Aura Pro Solid State Drive & Envoy Storage Solution for MacBook Air 2012 and its working really good. You should go to http://www.macsales.com/ and they have support Bye

I think that designation is what SATA port the Mac Mini is using. The kit will work for Mac Minis put out in the last two years.

If you're getting this unit, find a seller that will upgrade it to 4gb or 8gb of RAM **AND** an SSHD hard drive. It'll perform like a new Mac... WegenerMedia offers in this config, and others may as well - check with each merchant before you order... Also, we recommend OSX 10.8 or 10.9 - those will give absolutely best performance....

That's what I have. This memory kit made an incredible difference! Just to be safe, click on your apple menu, then "about this Mac". Make sure it says "1333MHz DDR3". You should be good to go. Enjoy

I don't really know if it will work with a older Mac Mini. I would recommend to search for memory that will work with Mac Mini and other Macs at the time. (i.e. PowerBook G4, iBook) I did some research on some Macs from 2005 and most of them needs DDR Memory, either laptop or desktop memory.

I would suggest, just to be sure, to go to crucial's website and use their memory check. It will give you the exact type of memory specs, and you can then compare what they say and match up another brand's memory. I used this in an macbook, and it worked great. Can't speak for a windows machine, but usually specs are a good indicator from my experience.

Memory (RAM) comes with spec or model like DDR3, etc... this is like manufacture standard. You don't need to worry about brand names. all you need to note is the spec. So, you go to Apple website or support and ask to find out what RAM spec or model your Mac has, then you can buy the same spec in the market.that is what I did and it fits perfectly.
