13" 2016 - 2017 MacBook Pros seem to have a lot of RAM issues?
I run a small repair shop and have noticed that, in the last six months or so, I have seen about 10 different 13” 2016/2017 Macbook Pro’s with defective RAM. Both the touchbar and function keys model. Have others seen the same? Is this yet another “gate” that plagues these models?
Update (06/12/2021)
The Macs freeze unexpectedly, after a while they fail to boot as the OS gets corrupted. The built-in diagnostics often doesn't spot the problem, but memtest86 always picks it up. Here is an example screenshot:
Is dit een goede vraag?
Can you expand what you are seeing. What does the onboard diagnostics tell you?
Apple is using a different RAM type which is more often used in cell phones. Being a much higher density package its possible heavy RAM I/O could be an issue. All of the 2016 onward systems are using this RAM type (other makers are as well)
What types of work loads are these folks doing on their systems?
