What height for SSD in Macbook Pro 13"

Hi everybody,
I am thinking of upgrading my MBP with a SSD, though I was wondering what height fits into the harddrive slot inside the MBP? There are several SSDs with 7 mm or 9.5 mm height out there. So what height should I be going for?
Thanks for your answers.

Thanks for your quick answer. And what about 7 mm drives? Won't they be too thin, thus moving inside the bay? Would I need to add some filling material?

  • How do you know what kind of ssd your macbook pro has?

    I have an older macbook pro (the one with a intel core 2 duo) but I don't know which kind of ssd it has. I checked system profiler but I did not see it. I have not upgraded it so I am assuming this is the default ssd. I want to also upgrade the ssd, but nor sure which one is good. I was thinking OCZ Vertex SATA II 2.5'' (not sure what size 50-480 gb).

    Go to System Profiler > SERIAL-ATA > Then you will have the Model numbers - Just google them & you should get your drive!

  • Whats the maximum resolution resolution supported @ 60 Hz on an external display for mid 2014 macbook pro retina 13 inch ?

    whats the maximum resolution supported @ 60 Hz on an external display for mid 2014 macbook pro retina 13 inch ?

    I don't know where you found 1920x1080, but that isn't the max. The INTERNAL display can even support more than that.
    The maximum resolution is really hardware based, and since Thunderbolt 2 has a Mini displayport connector (Mini Displayport 1.2), the max resolution for Mini Displayport is 4k (3840x2160).
    PLEASE NOTE: Not all adapters can support that resolution, most monitors that can run 4k @60Hz have Displayport 1.2 (The most recent revision), Mini Displayport 1.2, and HDMI 2.0. DVI dual link can run 4k, but only 24-30Hz, depending on the monitor.
    Hope this helps!!

  • My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software.  I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.

    My Airport wireless is working for my two MacBook Pros and my daughter's iPod, but our iPad, Iphone and other iPod all say they need to set up an Airport Base Station but do not have the proper software.  I'm not sure what to do to remedy this situation.

    This might sound like a silly question, but are you sure the iOS devices (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch etc.) are still trying to connect to the same network from your own Airport router, as the MacBook Pros are? If you tap Settings on them, is the network name next to where it says Wi-Fi, the right one?
    I've got a weird feeling that either in the past couple of days, a neighbour got an Airport device and hasn't set it up yet (causing your iOS devices to try to help), or that perhaps there's an issue with your Airport router and they're noticing it and trying to help out, while for whatever reason, Airport Utility isn't opening itself on the MacBook Pros like it normally should if there's a problem.
    If you open Airport Utility on one of the MacBook Pros, does it report any problems with your Airport device, and can you view/edit the settings on it?

  • What is the reasonable battery count cycle for a new macbook pro?

    what is the reasonable battery count cycle for a new macbook pro? I just bought it and i found that the count cycle for the battery is 6, is that normal?

    First off, a MacBook Pro is not a Power Mac.  Power Mac is the nomenclature for Apple desktop machines prior to mid-2006.   Mac Pros also are desktops, but later than mid-2006.    http://www.apple.com/batteries/ covers Apple notebook batteries and other battery performance.  I've asked this thread be moved.

  • What is the best 500GB HDD for a 2007 macbook pro

    what is the best 500GB HDD for a 2007 macbook pro. This is a pre unibody machine.
    I am upgrading at the minute and can't make my mind up. I need a 7200rpm drive, but have heard some stories concerning overheating etc.
    These are the drives I am looking at: Seagate Momentus, Hitachi Travelstar and Western Digital all 500GB, running at 7200rpm.

    If you haven't already, you might look a the user comments at http://www.newegg.com on those hard drives. If you don't get other comments here, you might post in the MBP discussion (this is the iMac discussion) at https://discussions.apple.com/community/notebooks/macbook_pro

  • What is the best protective case for 2011 13" Macbook Pro

    What is the best protective case for 2011 13" Macbook Pro (that can withstand an active 4 year old :).   My 4 year old plays with the teaching apps on my iPhone 4 in the otterbox case and its great - the bulkiness of the otterbox not an issue and I love being able to give the phone to him and feel completely comforatable. I would love to find something to protect my Macbook Pror. Thanks for any help!! 

    I would definitely go for a Hardsheel or a Perforated Hardshell Case

  • What is best all in one printer for my new MacBook Pro ? Needs to make very high quality photos.

    What is best all in one printer for my new MacBook Pro ? Needs to make very high quality photos. Using USB connection.

    That's a difficult one but I'd always go for HP as they make so many excellent models that you'll always be able to buy the cartridges from almost anyone.  Theyre darn good printer too.  I have four in the office here and one of them is a very neat flatbed with exceptionally high tonal qualities.  One of their cheaper models is the HP 5520 A4 inkjet all-in-one - CMYK.  Good value at £70 and 4800 x 1200 DPI. 

  • What is an easy web-page creation program for use with MacBook Pro?

    Can anyone suggest an easy web-page creation program for use with MacBook Pro?  I have used FrontPage with my PC, but am changing to a MacBook Pro.

    It largely depends on your skill level. Do you want to write web page code, or do you want to just design something and have it turn into a web page automatically?
    If you are more of a designer, try these:
    RapidWeaver
    Freeway Pro
    Muse
    If you want to write web page code, try these:
    Coda
    BBEdit
    Dreamweaver
    If you really don't want to write the code and want the best experience for your viewers, and you want to spend the least amount of time on it, my recommendation is:
    No program at all.
    Instead, sign up with a web site company like:
    WordPress.com (hosted by them) or WordPress.org (hosted on your server)
    Squarespace
    Wix
    The reason is that these companies have fully operational, nicely designed web site templates that you just fill in with your words and pictures, and they are ready to go. They also give you these benefits:
    Already designed to the latest web standards
    Already designed to resist hackers
    Already designed to work on all browsers
    Already designed to automatically adjust the page for readability on desktop, laptop, tablet, and smartphone screen sizes
    Already designed for accessibility
    Already designed for Search Engine Optimization so that your page will be found on Google
    Already designed with social media links built in if you want
    It is not like the old days where you build a site in Front Page and you assume it will only be seen on a desktop computer. If you build it yourself with a web page program, do you have the knowledge to make a site that works on all of the different web browsers and mobile devices, and is friendly to search engines and social media? If you don't have those skills, working with a website company can be a lot better, faster, and more reliable than trying to hammer all of that out yourself using code in some app.

  • 128gb ssd on macbook pro can't boot from any win dvd

    Like in title, installed 128gb ssd on macbook pro and can't boot from any windows based dvd.
    I’m try just everything... First I was put new ssd disk in laptop, boot and than choose windows boot cd disk for startup device. CD/DVD working 10-20 sec and after that nothing happened for 3-4 min… I can just turn off computer. I was try to boot with win7, vista, xp and other boot dvd-s for partition management… Every attemp simply freeze machine.
    Then I was try to install mac os (snow leopard) from install dvd and installation was done smooth without any problem… Really don’t know why I can install osx and can’t install or boot any type of windows cd/dvd.
    After installing snow leopard I was try to make new partition and install windows trough apple bootcamp 3.0 but again same problem. When machine reset and try to boot from cd it simply freeze.
    Falcon 128gb SSD attached over USB workin fine eaven osx booting from external ssd. SO, next what I wish to try is to clone old 320gb with two partitions to new 120gb ssd. I'm just try eaven this and when ssd attach to laptop it says that there is no bootable device... so, they don't see ssd like bootable...
    Configuration:
    Macbook pro 15 (late 2008 i think)model 3.1
    128gb gskill falcon ssd
    Mac firmware 1.3 (i think, how I can make upgrade and check fw ver under windows)
    hdd firmware (1571)
    Regards,
    Benis

    p.s. any sugestion for some other ssd that will work on this machine?

  • Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    This, Whats's the difference between MacBook Pro 13 and 13.3 ?

    Firstly, you are not in MacBook Pro forum, so you need to get your bearings.
    2nd check the specs page
    http://www.apple.com/support/macbookpro
    Then Bing/Google for reviews, Ars is always good but dozens have done one.
    2011 brings Intel Sandy Bridge processor boards, Thunderbolt, SATA3 (6G) along with options for SSD and much more RAM (can save buying RAM and doing the upgrade yourself)
