Installing 6Gb or 8Gb ram

Thanks for posting a link to my previous answer on this question. If you read the link to the OWC finding, I don't understand what the question is, it pretty well address the issue. And yes, I have 8 GB of RAM working in my MacBook Pro 2.53. But you must have one of the affected models for this to work:

MacBook 13.3″ 2.0GHz and 2.4GHz

MacBook Pro 15″ 2.4GHz (All)

MacBook Pro 15″ 2.53GHz model w/ExpressCard Slot (Late 2008)

MacBook Pro 15″ 2.8GHz model w/ExpressCard Slot (Late 2008)

Hi Mayer I have read the link but my question is that my macbook pro is NOT an unibody (ie: MacBookPro5,1 ) which is the kind of macbook pro mentioned in the article.

Thus the said firmware upgrade does not apply to MBP 4,1.

These are my current firmware versions..:(

Boot ROM Version: MBP41.00C1.B03

SMC Version: 1.27f3

You're going to have to live with 6 GB maximum. Apple officially supports a maximum of 4 GB of RAM but third-parties have been able to upgrade the system to 6 GB of RAM using one 2 GB and one 4 GB memory module.

for your machine, i cannot find any trace of proof of it working with more then 6 GB of RAM. the next model up, the late 08 macbook pro, will work with 8 GB of RAM using that firmware.
