Default Re: 16gb RAM enough?

Yes. I've upgraded that MacBook Pro from 8GB to 16GB and it worked great for Protools. So I can testify that it is upgradable to 16GB RAM. The issue with that model of MBP is the failure of the GPU. Once that goes, the whole logic board needs replacing (about $600-$700) and is not worth repairing because it is no longer covered by Apple's service policy.
