Upgrading Apple Mac Pro Memory    Submitted as: Some computer manufacturers have a reputation for
Some computer manufacturers have a reputation for creating advanced machines that can handle heavy workloads with super-efficiency. All of the Mac computers are looked at in this way, but even with their cutting edge memory and workload management processes, they can still require upgrading. An Apple Mac Pro Memory Upgrade is easily done thanks to the availability of additional memory slots and the dual-channel memory architecture. This is something standard to these computers, and it allows the Apple Mac Pro RAM to be accessed completely and simultaneously when the slots are loaded with even or equal amounts of memory. For example, if the owner upgraded their Apple Mac Pro memory to two matching 512 MB units, the system could easily reach a throughput capacity of 10.7 GBps. If you aren’t aware of the significance of optimal throughput, it helps to consider that upgrading the memory of a Mac Pro to the level discussed will allow it to send and receive data at this intense speed, and this in turn also means that the system and all programs will run much faster as well. What types of memory can be used to upgrade an Apple Mac Pro? There are many reputable manufacturers of memory cards and devices, and while the majority of “generic” memory kits will be perfectly acceptable, it is always a good idea to aim towards the types recommended by a manufacturer. Before looking for memory upgrades it is important to consider some factors that impact the size and performance data you should be seeking out. First, the operating system on each machine will be able to tell the owner the “baseline” amount for optimal performance. So too, will the best computer programs as well. The hardware installed can also slow down performance due to memory consumption, so all drives, scanners and memory using devices should be added to the considerations as well. A final consideration is the usage pattern for the computer and its memory – for instance, there are professionals who ask only “light” workloads such as word processing and email functions, but this same person might also perform graphics heavy work also, which increases the size of the memory upgrade required. With that in mind, most Mac owners will consider Kingston memory and Samsung memory options for their upgrades. Both manufacturers understand the requirements of the various levels of usage and demand and offer appropriate kits ranging from 128MB up to 1GB and higher.(read entire article)

Performing An Apple Mac Mini Memory Upgrade    Submitted as: Fans of Mac computers understand that the Apple Ma
Fans of Mac computers understand that the Apple Mac Mini computers offer an incredible level of performance. Their memories are huge, their processing power borders on the epic, and their capabilities are almost unlimited. The fact that they are also among the “greenest” and most environmentally friendly machines doesn’t hurt either. Some users of the machines, however, do wonder if they will have the capability for doing an Apple Mac Mini memory upgrade should that ever become necessary. Unlike other Mac models, for an owner to do an Apple Mac Mini memory increase, it will be a bit different than simply sliding cards into available slots. This is because the system does not offer even a single expansion slot, instead, the machines are optimized to “support” expansions of up to four times the original memory installed. The way the current owner can do an Apple Mac Mini RAM upgrade is quite simple – they would just purchase the appropriate kit for their machine and do the straightforward installation. A single illustration can better explain the process: the owner of a Mac Mini may have a machine with 1GB of 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM, and a 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. This person would need to investigate their options for the maximum amount of memory available in an upgrade. This is something easily determined by understanding that the Mac Mini cannot use more than a 4GB upgrade, and must have a “matched” pair of cards to function. So, the ideal devices would be those designed to meet Apple’s OEM specifications and also offering a module set or kit with two 2 GB cards. The reason that anyone deciding to increase the memory capacity of the Mac Mini should aim for the maximum level available is simply due to the fact that repeating the process is inefficient. Unlike other Mac systems, the Minis have only a limited expansion capability and taking them to the limit on the initial upgrade is the best way to avoid any problems in the performance at a later date. Currently, most Mac owners turn to Kingston memory and Samsung memory upgrade kits to perform such tasks. This is due to the fact that they all meet the OEM specifications for Mac systems and computers and because they have no limits on their warrantees. This is something that anyone performing an Apple Mac Mini memory upgrade should demand, because technology has advanced to the level that any computer device or kit maker should be able to easily provide their customers with guarantees and unlimited warrantees.(read entire article)

Understanding Your Apple Ibook Memory    Submitted as: Anyone who owns a laptop or notebook computer unde
Anyone who owns a laptop or notebook computer understands that there are more limitations on such a machine than on a standard desktop system. This has to do with many factors, including processors, cooling fans and energy consumption. For owners of the Apple iBook computers, this applies too. This doesn’t mean that an Apple iBook memory upgrade is impossible, however. To understand the limitations of the Apple iBook memory is really quite easy – most models have a pre-installed amount of memory, and all are expandable to a certain degree. Currently, the latest models also offer a single expansion slot as well. The important thing to note is the maximum amount of memory that the system or processor is designed to support. For example, an Apple iBook RAM upgrade on the newer iBook G4 models would allow the owner to increase their capacity up to, but not exceeding, 1.5 GB. Each upgrade of an iBook computer will depend upon the model, system design and needs of the owner or primary user. All computer memory upgrades will be done as a way of improving performance, and usually people do not consider expanding their memory until the machine begins to operate slowly or demonstrate sub-standard displays during professional applications or even gaming. This is the reason that most computer experts recommend “splurging” on the largest amount of memory available when it is time to do an upgrade on any system. The owner of the iBook computer should, therefore, seek out all of the specifications and limitations of their machine and then find the biggest memory kit or device available. How do they know this? Well, Mac users are fortunate in that the “Scan My System” function allows them to get a very detailed listing of their computer’s settings, expansion capabilities and specifications. This is important because all memory devices must be built to the OEM specifications set in place by Apple in order to function properly and effectively. Currently, most Mac owners turn to Kingston memory or Samsung memory devices for their upgrades. This is because they guarantee the right specifications for the machines and they also provide an unlimited warranty. There is no longer a reason for any manufacturers of after-market computer equipment to limit their liability on such things as memory cards. Although there are many companies producing qualified products for Macs, it is best to work with those who are known for providing owners with the exact devices they require.(read entire article)

Upgrading Compaq Memory    Submitted as: Compaq is one of the larger and more popular manuf
Compaq is one of the larger and more popular manufacturers of personal computers. The parts required for a Compaq memory upgrade are widely available and, especially over the last couple of years, have continually gone down in price. Performing a Compaq computer RAM upgrade can extend the useful life of the computer by making it possible for the machine to open and work with larger programs and files. The upgrade essentially increases the amount of "scratch space" the computer has to work with and allows it to multitask at a faster and smoother rate with fewer errors and lock-ups. Compaq computer memory will vary a bit depending on what model is being upgraded but it is essentially the same from one machine to another in the broadest elements. Kensington memory, Samsung memory and the products of several different third-party manufacturers can be used or one may use OEM equipment. Compaq computer memory will essentially snap into place once one finds the correct slot and removes the existing memory from the machine. This process is much easier and faster than most users tend to believe and anyone who is reasonably comfortable with their computer and who has a screwdriver can perform this task. The Compaq RAM upgrade consists of nothing more technical than taking out one component and swapping it for another. The new memory will be inserted into the computer's motherboard in the exact same place as was the old memory. Compaq computer memory will not fit into a motherboard for which it is not designed. The RAM component will have a notch and two or three sections of connector strip at the point where it is mounted into the motherboard. These notches are placed at different points on different types of memory to prevent users from installing the incorrect memory in their machine. The brand name chosen is entirely up to the user. There may be slight differences between the offerings of different manufacturers. Some users also have a preference for one reason or another; choosing Kensington memory over Samsung memory, for instance. While such users will definitely be happy to reveal their reasons for preferring one brand over another, all of the third-party manufacturers tend to stand behind their products and for every devotee of a particular brand one can find a devotee of another. Oftentimes, price is the most important deciding factor for users. The Compaq memory upgrade process should only take a few minutes. Most of that time will be spent disassembling and reassembling the case. The actual swapping out of the memory should only take a few seconds. Given that this simple and inexpensive process can add a significant amount of service life to the machine, performing a Compaq RAM upgrade is almost always a good option. The cost of components has decreased considerably over recent years and that makes it a good time to consider this procedure. It's a great way to make one's computer last a bit longer than expected!(read entire article)

Performing A Hp Ipaq Memory Upgrade    Submitted as: It is not at all unusual for someone to surf the I
It is not at all unusual for someone to surf the Internet, manage personal finances and communicate in a handful of ways through a mobile or portable device. In fact, there is an ever-increasing catalog of “apps” for mobile devices that offer anything from GPS functions to entertainment. The thing about all of them is that they require computer processing and memory, and most portable devices are a little limited where this is concerned. The HP iPAQ handheld computers, however, allow their users to enjoy as much streaming media, communication and entertainment as possible. Naturally, the devices don’t come with the maximum amount of memory or RAM, and a consumer can easily do an HP iPAQ memory upgrade without a lot of expense or fuss. HP iPAQ RAM upgrades are available in large capacities that allow the owner to record hundreds of songs, images and data in a secure and reliable manner. How is a Hewlett-Packard iPAQ memory upgrade performed? The first thing to consider is the type of HP iPAQ memory utilized by the device. The majority will use digital or memory cards of varying sizes, and while the performance of the device is generally dictated by the fixed amount of HP iPAQ RAM, just increasing the overall amount of storage allows the device to operate at superior levels. Let’s look at a single example, the HP555 utilizes up to 128MB of memory, but it can accept HP iPAQ memory compatible cards of up to 2GB. This would allow the user to access super-fast networks, such as the popular 3G networks, access the Internet, and utilize a wide range of highly complex programs such as the Office applications for Smartphones. Unlike many computer upgrades, a HP iPAQ memory upgrade is done through an easy to access memory card slot. Rather than opening the case and inserting a pre-formatted device into a bank with various numbers of sockets, the Hewlett-Packard iPAQ memory is contained in the single new card. What this means is that data from previous memory sources will have to backed-up or synced at later time. There are different procedures used to accomplish this and it is best to consult an owner’s manual in advance of the increase in HP iPAQ RAM. How much memory should be selected? Like all computer memory upgrades, a HP iPAQ memory upgrade should be as large as the budget allows. Why wait to begin to run out of room or experience device slow down? Instead simply purchase the largest functional memory device and perform the simple installation. Currently, such manufacturers as Hynix Memory, Samsung memory, Micron memory, and Kingston Memory offer compatible devices. Although these manufacturers are well-known for their reliability and excellent quality, it is never a good idea to purchase them from a vendor who refuses to extend a warranty. This is because any memory upgrades are a fairly common occurrence and suppliers should guarantee their products. If they do not it is best to seek out another vendor immediately.(read entire article)
