Only MacBook Pros made up to 2012 have memory that can be upgraded. On those, more RAM, together with an SSD, is the cheapest way to keep a good machine useful.
What your model can take
- 2006–2008 (pre-unibody): up to 2–4GB depending on the model
- 2009–2010 unibody: up to 8GB
- 2011–2012 unibody: 16GB (2 × 8GB), more than Apple officially listed
- Retina (2012 onwards) and every Apple silicon model: memory is soldered and can’t be upgraded

Questions we’re often asked
My MacBook Pro is a 2015 Retina. Can I add memory?
No, the memory is soldered. An SSD upgrade is possible on that model, and it’s often the better improvement anyway.
