If you have a mechanical drive then it’s relatively easy to find the answer. With lots of “teardowns” available for the Macbook, I thought it wouldn’t be too hard to work out how the drive can be replaced. Thankfully, since, SSD prices have dropped, so it’s time for a replacement. However, although storage of media is still not something I do on it, I do make extensive use of iMovie. As I wasn’t storing music, videos or photos on it I felt that 120GB of storage would be plenty, and the SSD would add extra resilience. It wasn’t a standard build as I opted for a 120GB SSD, instead of the usual mechanical drive. It’s still going just as strong today, now with the latest version of OS X (although battery lift is not what it was). So i personally recommend you, if your really not cool with the storage of it, sell the entire machine to someone that feels ok, add some money and buy a 512GB one.It was back in August 2012 that I bought myself a Macbook Pro. Turn into a external usb drive, sounds ideal but currently i do not see anything can do that with the PCIE connector on it. its EXPENSIVE.Įven you did it, what are you going to do with the one that you took outta your laptop? Sell it, it not that much since it do count as used. If you go to eBay, or somewhere else and look up the price, i believe your going to know what i mean. The drive inside of your machine is a PCIE SSD which is made for Apple, **** fast but unlikely to find a third-party replacement. in warranty, and replacing the SSD will most likely to void that since Apple do not provide capacity upgrade for this model according to their site, so you have to do it on your own, and they don't seems like seeing people taking apart the device XD.Īnd, it's expensive. Since your computer is a 2015 ver., it's def.

It is doable, but is NOT recommended by me personally.
