Hi Sean,

Better late than never in answering your question. I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro 13" and currently have 16GB RAM in it and it works perfectly. I upgraded it (2x8GB) and it's really easy to do - exactly as the instructions above. When you buy your RAM make sure you spring for the mini tool kit (usually $5-$10) - it makes it so much easier.

Cheers

Kirsty
