Just Upgraded my Mac

[Terrio]

Well since my Mac broke I took it in to future shop
They said I needed a new hard drive so I got a 500gb one instead of the 250gb that was in my mac


So I doubled my HD space

I also got two 4gb ram
So I also doubled my ram


So now I have 500gb HD and 8gb ram

Would there be any problem with this? I heard if you have to much ram or something it could also make it slower or something
Any ways just wanted to say I upgraded and yea Cost me about $300

Ew Mac.

1gb, 1.8ghz, 127gb
This Vaio is old as fuck, I'll buy this when I get the money, I've half right now.

I paid the guy basically to fix my computer because it was not working
He found out and replaced the harddrive and I got the good one and replaced the ram to

Basically $150 laybor and $150 parts
Its fair tbh because I never knew how to fix it and yea he got it back in a day

They charged you $150 just to replace HDD and add RAM. changing hdd is extremely easy and adding ram is also really easy.

Honestly I tried changing the HDD and yea broke a plastic pressure piece so yea The hardrive does not just slip in and out like anything else you have to take allot of othershit out I think then put it in because On a macbookpro Things are all super tight togeather and yea No space to remove etc

And yea the ram I could do in two seconds but he put it in while he was doing the HDD so yea

Inxy, not Famous. Fool.




$300 is normal for a Mac fix, plus parts. It doesn't come cheap.

Macs aren't like Windows laptops.

Yea Mac's cost lots more to fix I got it pretty cheap if I were to go to this other store that only fixes macs they would have charged a arm and a leg to get it fixed I got lucky this time with only $300
