1.0 out of 5 stars Mac Mini 2009 Snow Leopard - NO WORKY!, October 20, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: PNY MN4096KD3-1066 Optima 4 GB (2x2 GB) Dual Channel Kit DDR3 1066 MHz PC3-8500 Notebook SODIMM Memory Module (Electronics)
I bought this to upgrade my 2009 Mac Mini. Beware, this does not work with Snow Leopard, it causes a Kernal Panic and will render your mini useless in a matter of days. After trouble shooting with a Apple Expert they were about to send me a new hard drive thinking that was the problem. When I told him I upgraded with this RAM he asked me to uninstall it and magically my system was back to normal. Looking on the PNY site (unfortunately after all this) I found that they had no RAM listed as compatible with the Mac mini and their support page says that they may not be compatible with OS X 10.4 or greater.

I bought this RAM to upgrade my mid '09 MacBook Pro. I might as well have just removed the old memory and stuck a piece of bread in the computer instead. Anyway stay away prom this memory is you have a mac.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not work with 2009 Mac Mini, October 27, 2009

Like the other reviewer, I purchased this for a 2009 Mac Mini. worked great for a while, then started crashing. I restart the computer every 45 minutes now with kernel panic. I ran the Mac hardware test and it found a HW error in the memory after 23 seconds of testing.

Definitely NOT compatible with Mac.
