Introduction

Upgrade your RAM for a noticeable speed boost. Agar aapka MacBook slow ho raha hai, zyada RAM dalna help karega.

What You Need

  • Phillips #00 screwdriver

  • Replacement RAM modules (DDR3)

Step 1: Remove the Lower Case

  • Flip your MacBook over (bottom side up).

  • Remove 10 screws:
      • 3 screws of 14.4 mm Phillips #00
      • 3 screws of 3.5 mm Phillips #00
      • 4 screws of 3.5 mm shouldered Phillips #00

  • Jab aap small screws wapas lagao, unhe thoda angled daalo — kyunki case mein slight curvature hoti hai (straight down daalne se threads damage ho sakti hain).

Step 2: Remove the Lower Case

  • Use your fingers to pry the lower case away from the body near the vent area.

  • Lift off the lower case and set it aside.

Step 3: Disconnect the Battery Connector

  • Use the edge of a spudger (ya thin pry tool) to gently pry the battery connector upwards from its socket on the logic board.

  • Best hai agar aap dono short sides se “walk” it out — step by step — taki corners of connector safe rahein.

  • Dhyaan rahe: connector kaafi fragile hota hai, zyada force mat lago.

Step 4: Bend Battery Cable

  • Gently bend the battery cable away from the socket so it doesn’t accidentally touch or reconnect while you work.

Step 5: Remove RAM Modules

  • Pull the two RAM retaining arms outward (away from the center of the RAM chip).

  • Once arms move, the RAM chip will “pop” up slightly from its socket.

  • Gently pull that RAM stick out of its slot.

  • Repeat the same for the second RAM chip (agar do modules hain).

✅ Reassembly

Bas reverse order mein steps ko follow karo:

  1. Insert new RAM modules into their slots (align properly)

  2. Push retaining arms back in place

  3. Re-bend or position battery cable

  4. Reconnect battery connector

  5. Replace the lower case and screw it back using correct screws

💡 Tips & Precautions

  • Dhyaan rahe ki RAM modules sahi orientation mein rahen — notch aligned ho.

  • Jab modules insert karte ho, dheere aur evenly press karo, ek side pe zyada force na lagao.

  • After reassembly, boot karne par “About This Mac → Memory” check karo taaki confirm ho jaaye RAM sahi se detect ho raha hai.
