That may require Snow Leopard if done through the App store.
2007 MAC MINI RAM UPGRADE CODE
However, you can contact the Apple online store and they can either sell you the USB stick with Lion on it, or, in the US I'm told they can sell you a code to download Lion online. Likewise, Lion is no longer available for download. In the US, and I would assume other countries that have an Apple online store, you can call and order Snow Leopard off the legacy products list. Snow Leopard is no longer available from Apple stores or Apple online. See this article about installing Lion over Leopard. While you didn't ask this, you probably know that the benefit to using two 2GB memory (versus 2+1) is that the Intel architecture will run a little faster, around 3% to 5%+, since matched memory enables dual channel memory access. I've had good luck with Samsung memory in various mac systems. It's Samsung part number M470T2953CZ3-CE6. You could look at the Samsung 2GB memory they carry and see if you can get it locally. OWC is a US site which does ship overseas. Went to the website for their product, put in the code CT2KIT25664AC667 in the search field and went straight to the product.Īlways appreciate help from those in the know. Quick find code on for Kingston RAM is 121416.just done it and it goes straight to the relevant page. Please can someone have a look at and say that will do it?

2007 MAC MINI RAM UPGRADE UPGRADE
I cannot find any detail on the help websites that quote a 2x2gb upgrade (on my Mac Mini) although as I said I know it can be done even though you won't be able to use the whole 4gb.

They quote a Kingston 1GB DDR2 PC5300 SODIMM 200 PIN, unbuffered, non EEC etc. I have scrutinised the spec of the recommended RAM on macupgrades but that is with a view to only upgrading to 2gbs (2 x 1gb). Fundamentally it is imperative I upgrade the RAM and if I am going to have a go at that I might as well go to the limit of what my Mac Mini can take and I believe it can take just over 3gbs according to what I have read. So to get there I have to upgrade the operating system from Leopard to Snow Leopard (which needs 1gb of RAM) and then upgrade again to Lion (which critically needs 2gb of RAM). The main objective is to take advantage of icloud now we have two other apple devices (iphone4s and Ipad2). I have done the checks and my Mac Mini is a 2.1, 2007/08, annoyingly bought just before the next generation came out in the spring of 2009. Done plenty of reading on macupgrades everymac eshop.macsales and macminiramupgrade.so I know what I want to do and just want someone to confirm the right spec RAM if I give you a couple of part numbers of what I plan to purchase.
