Before determining how much RAM you should purchase, it will be helpful to know how much RAM you already have installed in your computer.

If you don't have the documentation anymore, you can look up the specs of your model on the Apple support site.

You can determine what type your computer uses by referring to the documentation or running a tool like CPU-Z, a freeware utility that analyzes your system. RAM comes in a variety of different speeds. If there are multiple speeds installed, your entire system...
