8 GB DDR3 1066 MHz Kit

This 8 GB kit contains two 4 GB DDR3 SO-DIMM modules rated at 1066 MHz with CL7 timings. It is built specifically for the Apple Mac Mini Mid-2011 and uses the 204-pin form factor required by that system.

Mac Mini Mid-2011 Upgrade

The modules suit owners of the Mac Mini Mid-2011 who want to reach the 8 GB capacity using matched 4 GB sticks. Buyers with a different Mac model or a system that requires a later DDR generation cannot use this memory.

204-Pin DDR3 SO-DIMM Interface

The decisive specification is the 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM interface running at 1066 MHz, which matches the slot and speed of the Mid-2011 Mac Mini. If your computer uses a different pin count or memory type, this kit will not fit or function.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the kit is running at 1066 MHz with CL7 timing after installation?

Open System Information on macOS and check the Memory section — it will show each 4 GB module at 1066 MHz with 7-7-7 timing, confirming the DDR3-8500 specification.

What is included in the package and is anything else needed for the Mac Mini Mid-2011 upgrade?

The box contains two 4 GB 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM sticks (8 GB total). No additional parts or tools are required; the modules install directly into the Mac Mini's memory slots.

Should I choose the 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) kit or a different capacity for my Mac Mini Mid-2011?

This 8 GB kit matches the DDR3 1066 MHz CL7 1.5 V specification Apple used in the Mid-2011 Mac Mini (model A1347) and fills both slots for dual-channel performance.
