Mac Mini Late 2012 compatible memory

This 8GB kit contains two 4GB DDR3 SO-DIMM modules built for the Apple Mac Mini "Core i7" 2.3 Late 2012 server model. The unbuffered, non-ECC memory runs at 1600MHz with CL11 timing at 1.5V. It fits the 204-pin slots of the specified Mac Mini and installs without configuration changes.

Suited for exact Mac Mini upgrades

The kit suits owners of the Mac Mini MD389LL/A (Macmini6,2, A1347) who want to reach the 8GB per slot limit using matched modules. It is not for users needing the full 16GB maximum capacity across both sockets or those repairing Mac models that require a different memory generation.

DDR3 1600MHz SO-DIMM specification

The decisive specification is the DDR3 1600MHz (PC3-12800) 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor with CL11 latency. Only systems that accept this exact voltage, timing and pin layout will recognise the modules and operate at the rated speed.

Questions about this item

Should I buy the 8 GB kit as two 4 GB modules or look for a single 8 GB stick?

This kit provides two 4 GB modules totalling 8 GB and is designed to fill both SO-DIMM slots of the supported Mac mini.

What does the 1600 MHz rating mean once the memory is installed in the Mac mini?

The modules run at DDR3 1600 (PC3-12800) with CL11 11-11-11 timing at 1.5 V, delivering the rated speed when both slots are populated.

Does the 204-pin SO-DIMM interface limit the bandwidth compared with other DDR3 modules?

The 204-pin SO-DIMM form factor carries the full DDR3 1600 signal; the practical limit is the Mac mini's memory controller, not the module connector.
