RAM DIMM configuration in MBP

[lazymej]

I have a 2.2 GHz SR MBP with the stock 2GB memory. I wanted to know if this is 2 x 1GB sticks in 2 slots, or 1 x 2GB stick in 1 slot. The reason I am asking this is I am interested in upping the total RAM to 4GB, but need to know whether I can just get 1 2GB stick to top it up, or I have to buy 2x 2GB sticks. Thanks.

why don't you open it up and see?

I honestly don't know - there may be a way to check in settings, but opening it up would definitely tell you.

I have a 2.4 GHz, and it's 2 x 1GB ram sticks.

You can find out for yourself in About This Mac. Click on more info. Then click on Memory.

Sigh. Nominated for useful post of the week.

To the OP: Under The Apple menu: About this Mac: More Info takes your to System Profiler, then under the memory tab it will tell you how much is in each socket. The MacBook Pros always ship with 2 x 1 Gb stock, BTW, apple has never shipped a machine with a single 2 Gb.

Edit: apparently double reeds are faster than brass...

The standard configuration is 2x1Gb.
