Undoubtedly, I am sure that many of you are clear about where to see how much RAM we have installed in the Mac since you have been a user for a long time, but if you have just arrived in the Mac world or simply never before occurred to look at this data today we will see the so simple way that we have to do it. In addition to the RAm, different system information can be viewed through the apple menu that appears in the upper left corner , but today we are going to focus on the installed RAM and if we have free slots on the Mac.
It is simple and quick to consult, for this we access the menu that we comment on and click on «about this Mac». Once there, the next step is to select the tab "Memory" to see the installed RAM and the slots that we have free in case of having an expansion option. It will show us the RAM in GB, the type of memory we have if it is DDDR2, DDR3, DDR4, etc. and also the clock speed of the memories in MHz (667 MHz, 800 MHz, 1066 MHz, 1333 MHz or 1600 MHz) . Clever.
Right at the bottom we get a direct link to the "instructions to expand the memory" in this section Apple will explain all the details of our machine including the details to carry out this process if the Mac can be updated by the user by not having the RAM soldered on the motherboard. In my case, I have an iMac Late 2012 I get like this: This iMac model incorporates Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM) slots along the bottom of the computer with the following memory specifications
| Number of memory slots | 4 |
| Base memory | 8 GB |
| Maximum memory | 32 GB |
Then expanding or not expanding the RAM is up to each user, but knowing the details and knowing where to look at how much memory we have installed on the Mac is important.
