I read that the early 2009 unibody now could get 8 Gb of Ram. I bought 2 4Gb ram on iFixit and installed them. BUT now my batterytime is only a third and it gets very hot even in sleep mode! Anybody with an answer?
This is a problem which I think we’ll see a great deal of as people upgrade RAM to the max. Please work with me on solving this. I’ve done about 45 minutes worth of study on it so far but need to do more. The heat has to be caused by your machine drawing to much amperage We really need to know just how much heat is being produced. Would you download and run Hardware Monitor with and without the added RAM. Please list the specs on both the original RAM and the added RAM. I will contact my RAM manufacturer (RamDirect) for help on this problem. http://www.bresink.com/osx/HardwareMonit…
