Lifetime Warranty

All RAM upgrades supplied by Upgradeable have a lifetime warranty.
Our definition of lifetime warranty is: If the product ceases to work at anytime, you can return it for a replacement. Simple. No if's, no but's. Our RAM will out last your computer. We have had the same warranty since year 2000. It has never varied or been modified. Our competitors have played catch up and matched our warranty but they can never match our service. We don't provide a lifetime warranty as a gimmick, it is a statement on the values of our company, our goal of exceptional customer service and the quality of the products we supply.

Five year SSD warranty (3 year OWC Aura)
Unlike RAM, an SSD has limited write cycles, so it will eventually wear out. The Crucial MX500 is rated to last 360TB of write cycles. You would have to write 200GB every day for five years to wear it out! The new warranty for the MX500 SSD is five years. Our faulty SSD return policy is to make it as simple as possible for the customer. We will replace faulty drives as soon as they are returned. Please note older Crucial drives have a 3 year warranty and some OWC Aura SSD drives we sell have a 3 year warranty. The new Aura Pro X has a 5 year warranty.

14 Day Money Back Guarantee
When we started Upgradeable, we needed to assure customers our RAM would make a difference. What if the RAM upgrade did not speed up your computer? The answer is you can return the memory for a full refund. We chose 14 days because we thought that was a reasonable time frame. We have never refused a refund that has been a reasonable time past 14 days, such as 21 days or 30 days. If you are not happy with the RAM upgrade, we don't want to make your day worse by saying no to a refund. In fact, everything we list we stock, so if you dont want it, we restock it. This is a point in difference to most Kingston resellers. They don't stock the product, they are selling from someone else's warehouse. Which is why they don't like refunds.

Our money back guarantee is about your assurance that the RAM will make a difference. If is not about how many days, it is about customer service and trust. We have had the same guarantees for 18 years because they are sustainable. We plan to be here servicing our customers for more than the next 18 years!

Like a brand new machine for a quarter of the price!

I had a 4Gb RAM Mac mini as a file server because I couldn't tolerate the sluggish performance. I got a current OS running and with the aid of OpenCore-Patcher and now have three "old" machines running Ventura.

I increased RAM 16Gb {Maximum}. Secondly to replace one of the internal Hard Drives with a 2Tb Crucial SSD drive and leave the other non-booting drive in-situ.

The RAM took five minutes but the hard drive was fiddly. Apple's Hard Disc Utility worked. The copy took a long time, please be patient. I did two updates which took about two hours each.

And so, what was the end result? On the Mac mini I have run some tasks that I never dreamed of running - Importing the 4,500 loose images I had on there to Photos. I could launch as many APPS as I could find and apple-tab between them without crashes and prompt refresh of the screen. Love it.

Regarding my MacBook Air. It's a 2014 11" model running Ventura 3.6.6 with the aid of OpenCore-Patcher. Even though I couldn't increase its RAM, having a new SSD from OWC Aura 1Tb has made an enormous difference, at least 2x but being able to apple-tab between multiple APPS is a HUGE improvement.

So, if you don't have thousands to spend, consider older model Mac, say up to 2019 and add RAM & fast SSD's and you will be impressed. If you have old hardware like 2012+ models, spend time to learn about Open-Core-Patcher, update your OS to say Ventura first and then creep towards a better machine.

Cheers

Peter,
Thank you for your kind words. Upgrades are a really great way to breathe life into older hardware whilst saving yourself a bit of money at the same time.

MacMini Kit

The item arrived next day and I had the additional SSD installed in no time and the old Macmini is running great. Thanks to the Upgradeable staff for all their guidance with this upgrade.

Waiting for parts

I'm still waiting for correct parts to arrive, upgradeable are seeming to be helpful and blaming their suppliers, I really don't know who is at fault and probably too annoyed and frustrated to comment
