yes u have to buy specific ram and not any ram u can find. go to kingston or crucial or pny websites to try and find if they have any ram compatible with ur apple.
I am looking to upgrade a old mac and i was wondering if i need any special parts or can i use regular pc parts. For example do i need to buy special RAM or can i just use any RAM i find.
Thanks for your help!
