MacBook Pro 15" Early 2011 16GB Kit

This 16GB kit contains two 8GB DDR3 1333MHz SO-DIMM modules built for the Apple MacBook Pro 15" Early 2011. The 204-pin sticks run at 1.5V with CL9 timing and are unbuffered, non-ECC memory. Computer Memory Solutions guarantees compatibility with the specified model identifiers.

Suits owners of the 2.3GHz Core i7 15" Early 2011

This upgrade fits the MacBookPro8,2 and A1286 machines that have two memory slots and a 16GB maximum. It is not for users whose MacBook Pro is a different year, screen size or model identifier. Buyers who need ECC, registered modules or a speed other than 1333MHz should look elsewhere.

204-pin DDR3 1333MHz SO-DIMM form factor

The modules use the 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM interface required by the Early 2011 15-inch MacBook Pro. A different pin count, voltage or DDR generation will not install in this system. Confirm the 204-pin DDR3 1333MHz specification before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will this 16GB DDR3 1333MHz kit run in my Early 2011 15" MacBook Pro alongside the original 1333MHz modules?

The kit matches the factory 1333MHz speed and 1.5V voltage, so it will operate at the same frequency as the original memory.

How can I confirm the full 16GB is recognised after installing the two 8GB SO-DIMMs?

Open About This Mac or System Report; both slots should show 8GB each for a total of 16GB at 1333MHz.
