Review on OWC 8 by Viswanath Badasz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

I fooled you on purpose

I ordered 2 x 8GB for my mid 2011 imac and they sent me 2 x 4GB. At first I thought it was just an accident and I was going to send it back, but then I looked at the back of the box and saw there was 2x 8GB on the sticker. I was very confused as the RAM sticks were clearly labeled as 2x 4GB, quickly realizing that they simply stuck a 2x 8GB sticker on top of the original 2x 4GB sticker and intentionally sent half the amount of RAM I did have paid. This was clearly done on purpose and all of this can be seen in the photos I will add. Actually, I'm sorry for those who are less informed than me and don't know how to check the difference. And yes, I put them on my computer to check if they were mislabeled and were in fact only 2 x 4GB. So I got a $20 package when I paid 4 times as much for $80! I will happily return them and as a Best Buy employee I will make sure EVERY customer does NOT purchase OWC products. If I could I would give this place zero stars.

Pros
  • Compatible with MacBook Pro 2011
Cons
  • Almost OK
