OWC Offers More Memory Choices For OS X Lion Users
While Apple’s official minimum RAM requirement for OS X Lion is 2GB, industry experts agree 4GB of RAM is the minimum that should be installed for optimum performance of typical daily computer usage. For more advanced uses such as graphics production, A/V editing, and/or running a virtual machine, 8GB to 16GB of RAM is highly recommended.
“With the largest lab of Apple computers outside of Apple, we’re pleased to continue our streak of being first to fully test and certify these new 12GB and 16GB options for Mac min 2011 and furthering their amazing capability,” said Larry O’Connor, Founder and CEO, Other World Computing. “Having our own on-site memory test lab ensures the quality, reliability, and capability not just for standard factory supported options, but also for development and certification of ‘MaxRAM’ memory upgrades to support user needs that require higher maximum amounts of installed memory otherwise not factory available.”
OWC MaxRAM Lab Confirms Performance And Compatibility
