iC2Drops: Great memory! I bought this memory to install in my late 2009 white macbook and so far its been working wonders:) My awesome mac reads all 8 GB of memory and uses it all without any problems. I am glad I spent the $65.00 on this, it was wort every penny.
UPDATE**
So its been almost 6 months, I wanted to keep you guys updated to let you know how its still working. So 6 months later this memory still works great, I have never had a problem with the memory upgrade and overall my old late 2009 white MacBook is able to have many tabs open without signs of slowing down. Keep in mind this Mac does use the CORE2DUO processor not the CORE i5 OR i7 PROCESSORS so in other words its not going to be as fast as my mid 2012 MacBook pro. I won't be able to edit 4K videos or play triple A games but I will have the ability to keep more tabs and apps open and just do more without having to wait for something to reload. I just bought this 8GB RAM kit to help my white MacBook keep up with the modern operation systems. The processor is up to the task but the very limiting 2GB of RAM it came installed with was holding it back drastically. It may have been enough for 2008 and 2009 but in...

Seth: Couldn't expect anything more from this product. Noticeable difference in performance (I'm using a mid-2010, 2.4GHz Macbook Pro 13"), especially when running multiple programs. I can run Word, Powerpoint, Garageband, Safari, and iTunes simultaneously without fearing the dreaded "wheel of death." You'll see the biggest difference if you run a lot of programs at once with 4gb memory (which is a pretty standard "base level" for Macs).
Installation is easy; I'll summarize below what I did for my macbook pro. I really recommend getting a cheap tool set (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009MKGRQA/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_1 worked perfectly for me, and it was only $9), but if you don't, make sure you have the right tools with you!
You need a size 0 or size 00 (size 00 worked a little better for me, but don't go any smaller, or you'll warp the screws) Phillips screwdriver, as well as a stiff, thin tool to help pry open the RAM slots (DO NOT use a metal tool to remove the RAM, any electrical discharge can ruin your computer's battery). The 'stiff thin tool' isn't required, but it helps a lot if you have big fingers like me!
Turn OFF your computer completely, and set...
