How often can i overwrite a SSD (MBPr late 2013 Haswell)

Hello,
do here someone know how many times the SSD's from the new Haswell MBPr late 2013 can be overwrite? I mean the 512 GB Model.
Do here someone have more informations about the SSD? I have reed that it comes from Samsung but i dont know witch technologi here works?
Can a sector here overwrite 1000/3000 or 10000 times.....??
Thank you very much.
Bye

Are you SURE that you want to replace the hard drive rather than just add an SSD? If so OWC sells 3.5 to 2.5 spacers. EveryMac says this about your model *This model has a Serial ATA (6 Gb/s) connector for a hard drive as well as a proprietary PCIe connector for an SSD. As reported by site sponsor OWC, if the SSD is not installed at the time of purchase, the connector still is present and later professional or self-installation is possible.

  • Can I upgrade memory/SSD on late 2013 MBP retina?

    I have late 2013 MBP retina, 2.4 ghz, 11,1., basic 4GB and 125GB. I checked with OWC and they yet to have any solutions to upgrade. Am I stuck with this? Wanting to do some video editing and afraid I'll be bogged down.

    No. Neither are user-upgradeable in that model. What makes you feel you will be bogged down? If you need more disk space just add an external USB drive. You should have sufficient RAM if you don't try to run far too many applications concurrently for the memory installed.

  • How often can I swap a Creative Cloud activation between more than two systems?

    I have three computers - one at work (desktop) and two at home (desktop and laptop). My Adobe CC account is currently installed on two of them (desktop at work, desktop at home) but I would like to swap one of those activations as often as twice a week when I need to take my laptop on the go. i.e. I would activate my laptop and deactivate my home desktop for about 24 hours and then re-deactivate/re-activate..
    How often can I do that activate/deactivate without breaking the EULA?

  • How Often Can MBP Be Put To Sleep?

    Hi,
    I have recently purchased a MacBook Pro.
    How often can it be put to sleep? Will it harm the OS if I Shut Down every time I have finished with the MBP?
    How long will the battery last if the MBP is left in sleep for a long period?
    Thanks in Advance,

    Shutting down is supposedly more stressful to the hardware than sleep, and there's really no practical limit to how often you can put it to sleep.  I probably close and open my MBP several dozen times per day, on average.  It makes me worry a little about the hinge, but I haven't had hinge problems since my old PowerBook G3 more than a decade ago.  (And to be fair, I kind of whacked the hinge kind of hard on that machine, which probably played a role.  )
    As for the battery, if you leave the machine sleeping and not plugged in, there is a slight drain over time, but it's not significant unless you leave it that way for a long time - like, for example, if you leave it sleeping with no power cord connected overnight. 

  • How often can i install "adobe creative 5design premium" ?

    how often can i install "adobe creative 5design premium" ?

    Yes, provided you understand that install and activate are two different things.
    Install as often as you wish.
    But you can only activate the software for use on a maximum of two PCs at any one time.
    You won't be able to use the software on a 3rd computer (even if it is installed) unless you free up an activation on another PC and then activate the software on the 3rd PC.

  • How to fix MBPr (late 2013) slowdown due to defective battery w/o replacing it?

    Hi,
    I have this late 2013, MBP retina 13" running OS X 10.10.2 which has a defective battery (with 'replace now' warning).
    The computer is always connected to the charger (since the battery doesn't hold the charge) and I have started to notice extreme lags while doing day to day stuffs (like web surfing, word processing).
    I understand its solely due to the battery issue and some have successfully fixed it with several ways
    1. Go to About this mac under the apple in the upper left and click on More info
    2. Click on system report
    3. make a note of what it says after Model Identifier
    4. go to your master drive – System -Library – Extensions – IOPlatformPluginFamily.kext -Contents – Plugins – ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext – Contents – Resources – find the name from step 3 and move it to a folder that you can find again if needed.
    3. Restart and you’re done
    However the above method doesn't seem to work since I can't find relevant file for late 2013 MBPr.
    Would be grateful if someone can offer me a fix until I get my battery replaced.
    Thanks

    The problem you face is that a failed battery can expand and DAMAGE the MBP.  At the very least you should take the battery out of the MBP (which will require Pentalobe and Triwing drivers) or better yet, have it replaced.  Trying to disable it internally does not solve your problem.
    Ciao.

  • Problems installing Windows8.1 on High Performance MBPr late 2013 running Mavericks.

    Hi, im currently new to MacOSX ( i made the jump from PCs) and although i think the overall experience on MacOSX is perfect i still need to run Windows natively on my mac ( i dont trust virtualisation programs.) and then i started to investigate how to setup bootcamp to "load" Windows 8.1 but im having some troubles with the process ..
    1- when i open bootcamp it ask me where is the ISO. file (where the OS is), so i select my Windows 8.1 installation that my brother gave me and he told me that the ISO. have both forms of installations ( the 32 and 64bits) so when i load it on bootcamp it doesnt recognise the existence of the 64bit installation..
    right now thats the only problem ( so far ) that im having with this, if somebody can give me some tutorial to install windows 8.1 will be really appreciated.
    regards.
    DanAtaD

    Im downloading windows from this link http://www.123myit.com/downloads/ the 64 bit one, ( idc if its made to be downloaded with intentions of piracy since i have my license key) so illl try running boot camp with that and lets see if that works.
    I also have been reading about some problems on the MBPr late 2013 when they try to install windows 8.1 in EFI mode, but they "solve" the problem instaling it on the emulated bios, since its much faster to install it in the efi mode ( better speeds at waking up from sleep, better startup times, etc.) are there any workarounds to this problem or the problem has been solved with a patch from Apple?
    thanks.

  • New mbpr late 2013 2.6GHz

    Hi there
    I just bought a new mbpr late 2013 15" yesterday.
    The battery is fully loaded but only has power for 3 hours and 15 minutes?
    And the display brightness is very low..
    Running OSX Mavericks, my old mbp 2008 has a better battery life time....
    Any suggestions on this?

    I have the same model.
    There have been reports of incorrect estimated battery time remaining under Mavericks. Also, if you are performing GPU/CPU intensive tasks on battery power, these reports would be close to expected (Handbrake for encoding, gaming, etc).

  • How to reinstall OSX10.9.2 on a late 2013 MacPro

    Yesterday I wanted to reformat my hard drive and reinstall OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 to my brand new late 2013 Mac Pro. Upon looking through the forum I didn't find any straight and clear instructions on how to do this so I called AppleCare support and found the process surprisingly quick and easy, and not much different from previous procedures.
    Apple told me that the not-so-well-known Internet recovery procedure is not really necessary (unless you have a specific technical reason to do so) and that I should use the following procedure which is easier and quicker.
    So in case anyone out there is in the same position as I was last night, here are the simple steps to do a clean install (format your hard drive), and install OS X Mavericks 10.9.2.
    You will need an Internet connection only. You do not need to use a USB key or any other disk. For this procedure. If you have other external hard drives attached to your system you don't need to disconnect them, but just make sure you don't accidentally erase them in the disk utility function. Also make sure you don't install the operating system to the wrong drive!
    The procedure is as follows:
    1. Make the obvious backups of any data you wish to keep to an external drive.
    2. Restart your MacBook Pro then immediately press command + R - keep this pressed until you see the OS X utilities menu
    3. From the OS X utilities menu, select Disk Utility
    4. Inside Disk Utility, select the Erase tab
    5. Now select your main hard drive (from the left hand side column of drives) that you wish to erase an format, then specify format (Mac OS Extended Journaled) and disc volume name (I would suggest Macintosh HD) then press the Erase button
    6. Once this has completed, Quit Disk Utility
    7. You should now be back in the OS X utilities menu (where you started) - Now select Reinstall OS X Mavericks
    8. Follow the on-screen prompts as usual
    That's it!!
    You've now got a squeakyclean hard drive with a brand-new copy of OS X Mavericks!
    This procedure was given to me by the AppleCare support team.

    Save and store and installer package and make your own full clean reinstaller on any device, partition etc so you don't have to rely on internet and downloading (again) and can install easily on multiple disk drives or Macs for that matter.

  • MacBook Pro retina 13" (late 2013, Haswell) why is the highest resolution rendered in 3360x2100, which the system obviously can't handle?!

    Hey Apple and Apple users,
    I just recently switched from an MacBook Air (mid 2013) to the new Haswell MacBook Pro retina 13" (late 2013 model).
    The main reason to do so was the better screen and the option to run higher scaled resolutions, as advertised.
    I was willing to trade in the Air's low weight, smaller formfactor and the extra batterylife for the better screen.
    When it comes to resolutions:
    1280x800 is just a joke nowadays, why is the MacBook Pro still based on it? 13" and 1440x900 work quite fine...see MacBook Air.
    1440x900 is okay in everyday life situations, but sometimes you just need "more space" as the third scaling option calls it as well in the display-settings.
    1680x1050 on 13" can sometimes be challenging, but it is really fine if you need to work and have a lot UI elements to deal with (Photoshop etc.)
    So 1680x1050 scaled on the 2560x1600 screen would be my daily driver for work. So I expected a scaling factor of "1.5238..." (2560/1680) will be used most of the time.
    Frankly spoken...I am really disappointed by the 13" retina MacBook Pro and the way OS X Mavericks is handling the scaling.
    It obiously works well and responsive with the 1280x800 non-scaling resolution ("best for retina, scaling factor 2: 1280 --> 2560).
    Is still "okay-snappy" at 1440x900 (scaling factor 1.777...: 1440 --> 2560).
    But it totally breaks down at 1680x1050 (scaling factor 1.523...: 1680 --> 2560).
    I use "Mission Control" all the time and it is stuttering and slow...overall a sluggish and unbearable experience.
    The same goes for Desktop-Switching by swiping the screens or resizing and moving windows and files around.
    So I was wondering why...and then I noticed that when taking a screenshot of my entire screen (CMD + 3) the image size of the screenshot was 3360x2100 and not the expected 2560x1600.
    This means Mavericks is not scaling the UI with the appropriate factor (see above). For retina MacBooks it ist simply rendering one pixel of the classic, non-retina Interface in now 4 pixels (2x2) and sending this straight to the screen, which then "scales" it down to the resolution it is able to display.
    Why is this bothering me? – Because the machine has to do a lot more work to render the higher resolution that can't even be displayed, due to the screens limitations.
    2560x1600 = 4096000 pixels = 100%
    3360x2100 = 7056000 pixels = 172%
    This means the MacBook has to render 72% more information than actually can be displayed on the built-in screen and are just lost.
    Of course this makes the overall UI feel sluggish and idly! Especially with the not that performant Intel Iris IGP and no dedicated graphics card.
    All this extra "rendering" just results in a worse battery life due to the extra work that the graphics card and CPU have to do.
    First, Apple...are you serious about this?
    What can we do about this?
    Is there a way to have this properly scaled?
    Thanks in advance to everyone.

    Okay...I thought deeply about this issue.
    Even looking into ways to maybe fixing this on the software side. But it occured to me that this is to deeply embedded into the system that it won't be possbile to come up with a sufficient third-party solution.taht
    The problem is that there is no intermediate step inbetween "standard DPI" graphics and "HiDPI" (image-resources named "[email protected]").
    But there should be one, to minimize the amount of image information that needs to be processed by the device.
    This effects especially the MacBook Pro retina 13", as it has the less powerful Intel Iris IGP, when performing on the highest scaled resolution (equivalent to 1650x1080).
    As well as the MacBook Pro retina 15" without a dedicated, second Graphics Unit,when performing on the highest possible scaled resolution (equivalent to 1920x1200).
    Those devices don't have enough resources to handle the consequential "HiDPI" resolutions of 3360x2100 for the 13" and 3840x2400 for the 15" model.
    (Comment: 3840x2400 = 9,2MP, which is more than the standard 4K resolution of 3840x2160.
    I analyzed the scaling factors as follows:
    Factor "2" to display 1280x800 on the 13" model and 1440x900 on the 15" model in HiDPI.
    Factor "1.777..." would be required to display 1440x900 on the 2560x1600 screen of the 13" model.
    Factor "1.714..." would be required to display 1650x1080 on the 2880x1800 screen of the 15" model.
    Factor "1.523..." would be required to display 1650x1080 on the 2560x1600 screen of the 13" model.
    Factor "1.5" would be required to display 1920x1200 on the 2800x1800 screen of the 15" model.
    As all the models seem to have no problem with rendering the intermediate scaling step (1440x900 for the 13" and 1680x1050 for the 15" model) at HiDPI, hence with the scaling factor 2. There is no real need to provide the UI-elements.
    But in my opinion there is a strong need for a "MidDPI" ([email protected]) intermediate step for all the UI graphic elements that wis based on the scaling factor 1.5.
    This would result in the following:
    13" MacBook Pro retina with 2560x1600 screen:
    1280x 800 @ 2x = 2560x1600 (no surplus, native screen resolution)
    1440x 900 @ 2x = 2880x1800 (the surplus of 1088000px = ~1MP can still be handled and compansated by the weak Iris IGP)
    1680x1050 @ 2x = 3360x2100 (the surplus of 2960000px = ~3MP is too much for the weak Iris IGP)
    NEW 1680x1050 @ 1.5x = 2520x1575 (with a small border of left=20px, bottom=13, right=20, top=12 pixels, which means ~2,2mm and ~1.3mm around the 1.5x scaled image!).
    15" MacBook Pro retina with 2880x1800 screen:
    1440x900 @ 2x = 2880x1800 (no surplus, native screen resolution)
    1680x1050 @ 2x = 3360x2100 (the surplus of 1872000px = ~2MP can still be handled by the Iris Pro IGP)
    1920x1200 @ 2x = 3840x2400 (the surplus of 4032000px = ~4MP can't be handled sufficiently by the Iris Pro IGP)
    NEW 1920x1200 @ 1.5x = 2800x1800 (nu surplus, native screen resolution, no border needed!)
    The big advantage is that all the graphics have already been remodeled for the HiDPI mode.
    So scaling those "factor 2x" images down to "factor 1.5x" should be comparably easy!
    Example:
    Left: Traditional "standard DPI" icon of "all my files".
    Right: "@2x.png" for the "HiDPI" modes.
    Middle: "@1.5x.png" suggestions for the "MidDPI" mode; easily scaled down from the lovely HiDPI graphics.
    With this simple introduction of the "MidDPI" modes a significant amount of processing power can be saved.
    This not only improves battery life when driving those higher scaled resolutions, but also lets the user access those resources for what really matters: processing power for the primary job that the Mac needs to get done.
    Thanks in advance.
