Worked for about 12 months now having a new set sent to me, customer service was great!
I bought this RAM for my 2010 Mac Mini, worked great for about a year and then my computer kept getting panic alerts and reboots at least daily. I thought it was a hard drive error and checked drive and it said it had some back links and such, reformatted drive and tried to restore from my Time Machine and finally after fourth time and day of trying it said successful, so I go to work on it and crashing still. Ran memtestosx on it and failure after failure. Been a little over a year now and I just got a hold of the company on their phone number listed here on Amazon and spoke with Leon and he said a new set would be sent out immediately and they would send a return packing for the old memory back. Leon was pleasant and I had this at a two star rating and now giving it a four star because of the great customer service that I received once I found their number. Thanks Leon!

The RAM seemed to work fine for a few months and then my MAC mini ...
Received and installed this 16GB memory into a "vintage" Mac Mini. Initially, everything seemed to be ok, though I didn't see a performance improvement going from 8GB to 16GB as I would have expected. The RAM seemed to work fine for a few months and then my MAC mini starting experiencing daily kernel panics and reboots after a recent Apple High Sierra update. I thought it was a software but couldn't find or isolate a particular app or driver that might be causing the problem. As a last resort I removed the 16GB RAM and reinstalled the original 8GB RAM. Now everything works correctly and no more kernel panics.

Inexpensive and helpful
I had 2x2 RAM prior to this. Imagine my surprise when I started up my Mac and got apps opening immediately upon clicking. So much faster. So much smoother. I’m so happy! I’m a streamer and could never use my Mac Mini due to the slowness of it.

Brilliant!
Brilliant! 100% functional, and yes, upgrading from 8mb to 16mb makes my computer faster even on the simplest tasks of loading webpages, saving files, all the little house keeping. I use Photoshop CS6 and photos load faster from my iPhone, and from disk, and save much faster too. No more waiting for a save before I click the window close control. Just wondering what might happen if I change out the HD for a SSD? Scary stuff!

Works well with correct kit for Mac version.
This was a very easy install for our Mac Mini. If you are buying for the Mini, ensure you map the max RAM to the version of Mini you are upgrading. We have a 2003 model which will not accept the 16GB kit; however the 8GB kit made a world of difference. Login time went from around 2 minutes to less than 10 seconds. Prior to this upgrade we were running 2GB.

Easy to install
Installed in a mac mini to upgrade from 2GB to 8GB. Easy to install, memory came well packaged and quickly after ordered. Easy to install, no tools required. This is a good way to reduce the load on your computer and perhaps speed it a little. I would recommend A-Tech Components for memory.

Exactly what they are said to be.
I installed these in a mid 2010 Mac Mini Server that I use for video playing and streaming Internet TV and videos to a 51 inch Plasma TV. My original memory of 4 gigs was totally maxed out, now I have a spare overhead of 4 gigs. This is an excellent product for a very good price.
