    I'm going to say yes you can. The RAM matches the speeds that come with the T520. Try it and see what happens.

    I don't think there is anything special about "Apple" RAM... maybe Apple specifically validates or something, but in the end, DDR3 SODIMMs are DDR3 SODIMMs.

    It's just RAM. I'd be surprised if it didn't work :p.
