Installing RAM into the MacBook

Installing 2Gb of DDR2 RAM into a Black MacBook

Step One

Here's a step by step tutorial on how to install new RAM into a MacBook.


- Use a coin to turn the battery catch 90 degrees from its normal position, then remove the battery.

Step Two

- Remove the three evenly spaced Philips screws from the rear wall of the battery compartment.
- Lift the L shaped metal cover and pull gently to the right to remove.

Step Three

- Pull back on the metal lever and slide the RAM chip out from its compartment.
- Slide in the new RAM in until it is seated.

When finished, reinsert the metal cover again and re-apply the screws. Place the battery back in place and you're done!
