Excellent RAM - Works Perfect in MacBook
By A2UTU1T0P7YTSG on 2007-12-22
I just installed these in my brand new MacBook and it worked flawlessly. Check what OS you're running to be sure you can handle 4GB. The new versions can, not sure about the older versions. If you're afraid of doing the install yourself, don't be. If you can operate a screwdriver, you can do it. Just remove battery, open memory compartment with phillips screwdriver, then pull 2 levers to pull the RAM out, then pop these in! Your MacBook will automatically recognize them and that's it!
Correction
By A1K7OUOZGT6EG3 on 2007-06-09
Amazon has the wrong product description on this item: it's not Mac Mini memory. It's Kingston memory for the new Macbook Pro 2.2/2.4ghz models. Note that the 2gb equivalent of this model KTA-MB667K2/2G is for the Mac Mini.
Kingston KTA-MB667K2/4G is for the Macbook Pro models. I don't have this product but I'm giving it 5 stars and will attempt to get Amazon to correct it. I do have experience with Kingston memory and it is very high quality so that's what one would expect from this product. For those who want to verify this information follow the link to the Kingston manufacturers specs for this item. Click on the Compatibility tab>Show Devices and you will see the Macbook Pro models mentioned.

Needed upgrade for my MacBook
By A1B1JM4Q7TC6GB on 2007-12-31
I highly recommend this as an upgrade for your Mac. I'm new to the world of Macs in general, but wasn't about to pay $750 for the 4 GB upgrade from Apple. This allowed me to achieve my goal at only a fraction of the cost. I can see why people like Macs so much, but Apple shouldn't gouge their users so much. At least we have cheaper options thanks to third party vendors.
Works with 17" MacBook Pro
By AWQB68RTVWH9L on 2008-03-19
This item is perfectly compatible with my 17" MacBook Pro, 2.4Ghz laptop.
It only took 5 minutes to install, however, just make sure you have a set of precision screw drivers to access the memory compartment. The system is working FLAWLESSLY.
There is no need to pay Apple $600, when you can buy this Kingston kit, which does the exact same thing, saving you five-hundred dollars in the process =o)
Kingstong 4G flawless
By A1L27YDCLJ0YBX on 2007-11-02
Like other Kingston purchases, this memory has been flawless. Really allows the Mac Book Pro to come alive!
- Windows run 3GB and not 4GB RAM
By AJO0B5HLQAVBR on 2008-01-24
I just installed the 2x2GB RAM combo on my new Sony Vaio NR laptop. The BIOS shows that everything is fine, 4096 MB RAM is installed, but when I look at the Windows Vista System overview, it shows only 3062 MB RAM. Where is the rest of the RAM? I googled "Vista 4GB RAM" or "Vista 32-bit 4GB RAM" to see what was the problem and found out that if you are running 32-bit Windows, Windows Vista's architecture allows you to use only 3062 MB RAM, and you will never see all 4GB of RAM you've paid for.
- Excellent choice over Apple's RAM
By AAP1O6NTETD4M on 2008-02-15
I bought this for my White MacBook 2.0, it works like a charm. Can run up to 3 OSs with Parallels amazingly good.
- Works great
By A1IL7FT36RET26 on 2008-02-23
I knew I wanted more than the 1G memory that came with my Macbook but was nervous about installing it. The instructions that came with the memory were sketchy but I found illustrated instructions on the internet. It was very simple to install and works like a charm.
- low cost upgrade for Macbook Pro
By AK4HKI46S49NA on 2008-06-22
flawless upgrade for my Macbook Pro 15". no problems so far after couple months use. highly recommended.
- Works on PowerBook Pro
By A2RWJ2XL2BWZT1 on 2008-02-24
Bought the Kingston 4 GB RAM Kit to replace the stock 2GB RAM that shipped in my MacBook Pro.
After the installation, the computer powered up fine and the new RAM was recognized.
So far so good.
- great buy and dependable
By ALFO476D4VOV3 on 2008-03-24
i put these on my new white macbook and it's a breeze. go get you some! kingston is a great brand.
- Just bought more
By A262O1CBXMUFWW on 2008-07-05
As if 20+ 5 star reviews where not enough, I felt I needed to write a positive review for Kingson's RAM. I installed the 4GB upgrade in my Macbook and saved all kinds of money. I run Windows XP Pro via Parallels with several RAM intensive apps on both ends with no hiccups.
It was so painless and cost effective I just ordered a new iMac with just 1GB of RAM and will upgrade myself.
My only dislike was that I really wanted 800MHz and I could not find that option with Kingston.
- Failed after 90 days
By A3TK85WDMWY231 on 2008-08-30
It's cheap but . . . after about 90 days my optical drive stopped working. I shipped my computer to Apple who did a full diagnostics. The verdict? The memory chips were failing. Replaced with Apple memory (very pricey) and everything now works as it should. Buyer beware.
- Excellent
By A2PLQ12ASP1R7Y on 2008-04-05
The product got on time even with an address update from my part. These were used for my Macbook pro and worked like a charm ! Much cheaper than buying them from Apple directly.. :D
- The price alone is 5 stars!
By A20DZX38KRBIT8 on 2008-04-18
This is an amazing price for 4GB of ram considering Apple wants 700$ for the same thing. I recieved it today and Will install it in my Macbook Pro 2.2 Ghz model. I will update this review when I install it. This review is just commenting on the amazing price!
UPDATE:
Ram installed and works like a dream in my MAcbook Pro, If you need an upgrade get Kingstone RAM you wont be sorry!
- Double the memory
By A24TM4L74QQ9TR on 2008-04-23
These were as easy to install as I read in the other reviews and they worked.
- Perfect RAM
By A15QKMLM7YA5XQ on 2008-05-05
Nothing to say except it works fine (in a Macbook) and makes the laptop much more efficient. Great deal!
- GET IT!!!
By A15R78NMIJATJZ on 2008-05-11
Easy to install and it works really well! My MAC is an airplane now.
Cheers
- Faster than my stock RAM
By A3247EX07WP6P on 2008-05-19
I bought this two-pack of RAM to put in my wife's Macbook. I ran a benchmarking program (X Bench) before and after I installed the RAM, and the read and write speeds for this RAM was faster than the stock RAM. Not much else to say! Great product.
- AOUSTANDING QUALITY LIKE ALWAYS
By A21OF84RNVI1Q2 on 2008-06-02
I ALWAYS PURCHASED KINGSTON MEMORY FOR MY COMPUTERS,THIS TIME I PURCHASED A NEW MACBOOK AND NOW IS SUPER FAST I RUN WINDOWS,WITH NO PROBLEMS,IF U ARE WAITING TO BUY MORE RAM THIS IS THE ONE
- Worked Flawlessly with MacBook Pro Penryn
By A1FIX8IC0XIPDF on 2008-06-10
This installs perfectly on the latest MacBook Pro 15". Was up an runnning without a hitch. Don't expect a super massive performance boost, but it is still worth it. I can run VMWare to watch my Netflix videos, while doing normal development work without a hitch.
- delivers as promised now
By A3AJUZMRR9L8EM on 2008-08-03
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R3QZGK0IJX5YWT The video is not a straight forward review (that's down below) but rather what I was able to accomplish using the life saving 4 gigs of Kingston ram.
Ram is ram but for the price the Kingston is king. I can finally run final cut and motion simultaneously without worry. The install in my macbook pro took all of about five minutes. For most mere mortals though 4 gigs is way over kill and it will not allow you to check email or play itunes any faster. One item of note though - For the first two weeks after I installed the ram I would get a black screen of nothing for almost 10 minutes then everything would work fine. I reset the pram but to no avail so I replaced my usual shutdown with sleep. Then about three days ago it returned to booting like a champ. Go figure.

I purchased this product because it was way cheaper than the $600.00 apple wants for the same thing.I am very pleased it is perfect cant beat the price and works perfect
- Improved performance
By A1IFWZPCB4AB93 on 2008-08-12
Purchased the extra memory for the purpose of running the Windows OS on a Mac Laptop. The Laptop orginally came with 2 GB, however with 4 GB running, Windows runs much quicker along with the PC programs installed. The Mac software only showed a slight improvement after installing the extra memory.
