Mac Memory Upgrade 8GB DDR3L 1600

This A-Tech module is an 8GB DDR3L 1600 SODIMM designed as a memory upgrade for specific Apple Mac computers. It operates at 1.35V and uses a 204-pin form factor with non-ECC unbuffered chips. The kit contains a single 8GB stick built with major brand components.

Suits 2012 to 2015 MacBook Pro iMac Mac mini

The memory is validated for MacBook Pro 13-inch and 15-inch Mid 2012 models as well as iMac 21.5-inch and 27-inch units from Late 2012 through Mid 2015 including Retina 5K variants. It also fits Mac mini Late 2012. Systems outside this Apple model list or those requiring a different DDR generation will not be compatible.

204-Pin SODIMM DDR3L 1.35V Fit Check

The decisive specification is the 204-pin SODIMM DDR3L interface running at 1.35V because only Macs with that exact slot and voltage can accept the module. Verify your system model ID such as MacBookPro9,1 or iMac14,2 against the compatibility list before ordering.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 8 GB single module or a different capacity for my Mac?

This listing is an 8 GB single SODIMM; choose it when your Mac has a free slot or you are replacing one module, and add a second identical stick only if your model supports two modules and you want 16 GB total.

What does the 1600 MHz rating deliver inside a 2012‑2015 Mac?

The module runs at DDR3L 1600 (PC3L‑12800) with 1.35 V, giving the maximum bandwidth those MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini models can use for faster app loading and smoother multitasking.

Will the 204‑pin DDR3L SODIMM fit and run at full speed in my Late 2012 Mac mini?

Yes — the 204‑pin DDR3L 1600 SODIMM matches the Mac mini (Late 2012) memory slot and voltage, so it installs directly and operates at the rated 1600 MHz.
