HI,
The performance of my Mac mini (mid 2011) is painfully slow!! even after performing various cleans, preference changes etc the results don't seem to get better.
So i've decided to start upgrading the hardware and starting with the RAM (thinking 16GB), but when searching for RAM I found these two types DDR3 & DDR3L, does anybody;
a) know the differences between DDR3 & DDR3L?
b) which is the pereffered of the two?
Spec of Mac mini:
Mac mini (Mid 2011)
System Running: OS X Yosemite (version 10.10.5)
Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 2 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 3000 288 MB
Storage: 500 GB SATA Disk
FInally does does anyone have any further pointers to help improve the performance of the Mac mini?
Thanks for for the help in advance.
Mac mini, iOS 9.1, Running OS X Yosemite V 10.10.5
