INSTALL SSD IN MACBOOK PRO LATE 2011

I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro 15". I would like to upgrade the 5400rpm hardrive for a fast SSD. Is it easy to do yourself or should I get this done in a store?

Sorry - this one slipped past me...
It's easy to DIY. I put a 512GB Crucial m4 into my 15" late 2011 MacBook Pro last April. There are hundreds of videos on YouTube on how to install the drive.
First, decide on which drive you want - there's a good info and buyer's guide here. Although much of the discussion is about drives for Windows machines, most buying advice is good for Mac's, too. You'll also want to get yourself a toolkit and an external enclosure for your old drive - I got both from OWC.
After you have the drive installed, follow the directions here to format the SSD and clone the 'old' drive to your new SSD.
Any questions? Yell back...

  • Install SSD in macbook pro late 2011 15'

    Hello,
         I just want to make sure i have the steps right for installing my SSD. I am trying to avoid cloning because my current HDD is faulty which is why i'm replacing it. I have a time machine backed up on an external hard drive. So as far as i know i just need to
              1) Remove HDD and replace with SSD
              2) Boot the recovery drive
              3) Recover time machine
    I am just confused with step 2. I thought the recovery drive was just a partition of the HDD so it should not show up with the SSD in. Or is it seperate?

    Allow me to make things straight forward.
    Install the SSD.
    Install OS X Using Internet Recovery
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND-OPTION- R keys until a globe appears on the screen. Wait patiently - 15-20 minutes - until the Recovery main menu appears.
    Partition and Format the hard drive:
    Select Disk Utility from the main menu and click on the Continue button.
    After DU loads select your newly installed hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed. Quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Install button. Be sure to select the correct drive to use if you have more than one.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    This should restore the version of OS X originally pre-installed on the computer.
    Before rebooting OS X for the first time connect your Time Machine backup drive. Boot the computer and when you are asked if you want to transfer files now use the Setup Assistant to transfer your Home folder, third-party apps and support files, and system preferences from your Time Machine backup to the SSD.

  • SSD for macbook pro late 2011

    Hello,
    I need some help about SSD drives. I have read a lot but I don't understand much and decided to ask someone know better than me. My Macbook Pro is late 2011 i5 8gb ram and want to change its hard drive with SSD 256gb. I need advice about brands. For example is this okay 256GB Ultra Plus SATA 3.0 SSD? Or which SSD should I prefer?
    Thanks a lot.
    Selim Cavusoglu

    Hey Selim,
    I've installed many different brands of SSD's as well as different tier options for the same brand of SSD. In my experience, regardless of the brand the boot time will be right there next to each other between the 13-16 seconds range. Now if you want the best bang for your buck the simplest answer is go to amazon and buy a samsung 840 pro or samsung 840 evo. The performance is very similar and the price of the pro is a little higher since it will last longer due to it being a MLC SSD vs the EVO which is a TLC SSD. So if that answered your question there you go keep reading if you want:)
    Between the two, i picked a used (by amazons standards, it had just had damage to the packaging) 840 EVO and it was about the same price as what you have  shown an example. Now, buying used from amazon is hit or miss, so i recommend spending the extra $10-$20 for peace of mind. There is also cheaper options, but samsung seems to have the BEST track record with reliability AND performance. Keep in mind the 50MB differences in read speeds you see on benchmarks actually aren't very noticeable in launching apps.
    Hope I've helped, If you would prefer a different option from the recommended samsung 840 evo let me know and ill gladly give a few more options.

  • 16GB HYNIX for my MacBook Pro late 2011

    It is taking me so long to find a 16GB memory by hynix (8X2) to install in my Macbook Pro late 2011 . 2.4 GHz Intel Core i7 . 1333MHz DDR3 .
    Need a to upgrade and i think that i need a 204PINN SODIMM
    DDR#-PC3-10600 .cl9 Unbeffered.NON - ECC 1.35V.1024MegX64.
    Please correct me if I am wrong . And if you can assist me where to get it Or maybe SAMSUNG Memory .,Either one is Good but do not Prefere ather kinds.
    Best regards to all.
    Sam

    I actually prefer Crucial - I have the same model as you, but I've 16GB of Corsair in my machine. Had I to do it over again, I'd buy Crucial (particulary now that the prices have come down).
    Go to the Crucial website and use the System Scanner tab - it will let you know your upgrade options. Your machine, like mine, uses  204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMMs. I don't know a thing about Hynix, but Samsung is good as well - I just prefer dealing with Mac specialists.

  • Macbook Pro (Late-2011) Grey Cross during Install

    Hello.
    MacBook Pro (Late-2011) version. Just installed a new Intel 520 Series 480 GB SSD drive to replace the 750GB drive that was in it.
    Created a bootable USB Drive with Mountain Lion from the App Store (8GB SanDisk Ultra). When I try and boot from the drive, after about 45 seconds I get a grey crossout circle and it doesn't move from there.
    I've used the same method of creating a bootable install drive before when I did a fresh install on the same computer of Mountain Lion, and on my Mac Mini.
    So, is it the SSD that's causing the issue, or do I have a bad image?

    This problem is from a faulty restore of the installer to the USB thumb drive. Try fully repartitioning it with Disk Utility and then try the restoration again. To repartition, select the drive device in Disk Utility, and then use the Partition tab and select "1 Partition" from the drop-down menu. Then click "Options" and ensure GUID is the partition scheme. Apply the changes, and try restoring the installer to the drive again.

  • I tried to install windows 7 in my macbook pro late 2011 but i tried to create partions after it installed and it turn to dynamic disks and ican't access mac or win 7 what should I do i cant format it because i dont have a backup

    I tried to install windows 7 in my macbook pro late 2011 but i tried to create partions after it installed and it turn to dynamic disks and i can't access mac or win 7 what should I do i cant format it because i dont have a backup

    It's not that you can't format it because you have no backup, it's because you'll lose everything when you do. Lesson learned. Always have a backup.

  • How do I install the recover portion of OS X 10.10.1 on my MacBook Pro late 2011? It is missing!

    When I boot up my MacBook Pro late 2011 while pressing the option key it should show the recovery icon which it doesn't.
    How do I install this portion of Yosemite?

    This was changed with Yosemite.  The recovery is hidden when booting with option.  Hold command and R when booting to get into recovery (without option).  If you see the globe, then it is actually going to Internet recovery, which means you do not have a local recovery.

  • Installing window 7 to macbook pro late 2011

    I am trying to install Windows 7  to a Macbook Pro (late 2011). I got this far: After downloading Bootcamp 5 and going into Bootcamp assistant and clicking both, a) Download the latest windows support software from Apple, &  b) install Windows 7 or later version.
    NEXT: Installed external 8G usb drive for Windows support software to download to
    NEXT: In about 10 seconds it downloads then never moves on the "visual" download scale????????   THIS IS WHERE I GET STUCK
    ANY HELP WOULD GREATLY BE APPRECIATED

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    As it looks like you can't download the Windows support software from Boot Camp Assistant, download it at the Apple site > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1638 Follow the steps to burn it to the USB drive.
    Then, open Boot Camp Assistant and install Windows. Don't mark the option to download the Windows support software

  • I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 and I'm wondering if I install Windows 7 Ultimate to this MacBook Pro with this Full Retail Version. And if so, which bit to use either 32-bit or 64-bit since I have both disks.

    I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 and I'm wondering if I install Windows 7 Ultimate to this MacBook Pro with this Full Retail Version. And if so, which bit to use either 32-bit or 64-bit since I have both disks.

    64 bit.
    32 bit won't use all your computer's ram.
    64 bit allows you to run 32 bit programs
    Your computer is 64 bit
    New programs use 64 bit.
    There is no reason to use the 32 bit version of Windows.

  • HT1237 Macbook pro late 2011 latest 1.69f3 but I have 1.69f4 installed....

    Hi,
    Model: Macbook pro 15 inch Late 2011 2.4 i7
    Software: OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
    Last week I had the BSOD..... Tried everything what apple suggests, tried everything what google suggests.... Nothing.
    I decided to recover from last Time Machine.... Problem only appears when Macbook gets very hot and fans aren't cooling!
    Then decided to reinstall clean OS. Until now no problem.....
    From my investigation from Apple forums I understand that what controls the FAN's and hardware etc., for this to work correctly I must have latests EFi and SMC updates.
    Problem:
    In the lists of SMC updates: EFI and SMC firmware updates for Intel-based Macs states that My macbook pro Late 2011 (MacBookPro8,2) has to have: 1.69f3 (SMC 1.5) but what I have now installed is: 1.69f4 (SMC 1.7)
    So what? I have a incorrect version on my mac? Do I have to (seems to be) downgrade to: 1.69f3 (SMC 1.5) ??

    If you look at that listing, there are two MacBook Pro8,2 machines, the Early and Late 2011, and the SMC firmware specified is not the same...you have the SMC firmware that table lists for the Early 2011...it is likely the table has not been updated properly since the servers that download the SMC firmware look at the machine serial number and install the appropriate firmware for that machine.

  • Both Internal hard drives fail on Macbook Pro late-2011

    Both internal hard drives (SSD and HDD) failed on Macbook Pro late-2011.
    Setup: MBP closed with Thunderbolt display attached.
    Problem on HDD-A
    I called Apple Support to log an issue with my MBP2011. The system is made up of 2 drives - SSD (128GB) and HDD with 2 partitions HDD-A and HDD-B(original 750GB).
    HDD-A has LionOSX 10.7 and HDD-B is storage. SSD has LionOSX on it as well. I normally boot HDD-A.
    I was working on HDD-A and the Kernel Panic screen appeared prompting me to shutdown the machine and start it up again.
    I tried to reboot HDD-A and the grey progress bar appeared for a long time. I then forced shutdown and rebooted into SSD.
    I was able to boot from SSD and then I opened Disk Utility to check the drives. I verified the disk for HDD-A and there was an error. I then tried to repair disk and it couldn't repair it. A dialogue said the disk could not be repaired and that data should be backed up.
    HDD-A was not visible in Finder but HDD-B was accessible.
    I verified HDD-B and it was "ok".
    I shutdown, booted from SSD, disk utility HDD-A and the same message occurred.
    I called Apple Support and they advised that I boot from my external HDD which was a clone of HDD-A.
    Solution
    I was successfully able to boot from the Clone HDD-A.
    HDD-A was able to be accessed and I could retrieve the files from HDD-A.
    I copied over the latest files from HDD-A to an external drive.
    Same Problem on SSD
    Boot from SSD, i started working for about 3 hours, with the lid closed, and attached to the ACD.
    Kernel Panic screen happened again on the SSD.
    Couldn't boot boot from either SSD or HDD-A.
    I booted from Cloned HDD-A, Disk Utility verify and repair returned errors on SSD. The same issue had occurred on the second drive.
    Disk Recovery from a boot recovery USB thumb, Disk Utility, erased SSD, verify was ok.
    Tried to install then there was an install error saying that SSD was damaged (large triangle warning icon). Tried 3 times, failed.
    Boot from Recovery Drive HDD-A, downloaded LionOSX.
    Next steps
    Format HDD-A and HDD-B into 2 partitions
    Install LionOSX on HDD A.
    Note:
    I did not do any software updates for about a week before 14.04.2012 and suspect it might be due to the virus.
    I normally work with the lid closed and attached to the ACD, I also suspect that overheating caused both drives to fail. However, I have been using this system with the lid closed for atleast a week. One Kernel Panic screen occured.

    Depending on what you are doing on the computer, how hard you are working the computer, it should not overheat. And if it does it should shut down or get very slow because when it starts to overheat the CPU will be throttled back to a lower Ghz speed and or just shut down so it doesn't cause damage to the CPU. The Kernel Panics are a sign that something else is going on. This could be software or hardware.
    If after wiping the drives and reinstall Lion on the SSD if the system is running OK then the drives are fine, IE they are not bad. There is something else corrupting them. Again this could be hardware or software, but I doubt it is heat. And using the MBP ion clamshell mode should not cause overheating or excessive heating of either of the drives.
    Have you installed iStat Pro or Menu and kept and eye on the temps? If not install iStat Pro and keep and eye on the temps. I bet they do not get above the 150°- 180°F mark which although hot is not overheating.
    Be very careful when calling Apple. Removing the DVD drive and installing a hard drive in that bay could void your warranty. The DVD is not a User Removable part and Apple frowns on doing that. So if you call them do not mention that you have replaced the DVD drive with another HDD.
    Honestly I suspect you have a hardware problem. But the only way to know that is to install just Lion and your basic programs and run the system. Leave out any AV type software, if you are running some. If you don't get any kernel panics thenn install some of your other software, one programm at a time. If with just the OS and basic software you get a kernel panic then it is hardware related and needs to be checked out by Apple. If you do that re-install the DVD and the original HDD with just the OS on it before you take it in.

  • MacBook Pro late 2011 screen goes blank and needs shutdown and superdrive spins 3 times before ejecting discs

    Hi everyone,
    I have a big problem with my MacBook Pro late 2011, suddenly while working without connecting the charger and it is 100% charged the screen would go black and I would need to hold the power button to shut it down and then power it up again, The second issue is the superdrive whenever I use a disc it spins it for 3 times before ejecting it to me, tried resetting PRAM and tried re-installing mac os x mavericks, but no solution so far and about the superdrive I bought a cleaner disc and tried to insert it, the superdrive would spin it 3 times and ejects it after that. Saw the disk permission solution and tried it once and I think there is a problem with that because this is the second time I try it and it was saying that there were problems.
    Sorry for being long.
    Thanks in advance.

    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • My japanese macbook pro (late 2011) physical keyboard does not match with the on screen japanese keyboard in windows 8.1 so does caps lock

    I am using windows 8.1 pro on my Japanese macbook pro (Late 2011) and enabled japanese language but the problem is that when i press caps lock (lower left corner) it changes the input method from english to japanese. I checked my on screen keyboard (OSK) in windows and its different from my physical keyboard i.e. keys are different on my physical keyboard compared to OSK. Can anyone help me?
    Thanks
    Tenadona

    Can I suggest the following articles, which are worth reviewing?
    Boot Camp: About keyboards and key assignment for Microsoft Windows - Apple Support
    Boot Camp: Apple Wireless Keyboard keyboard mapping in Windows - Apple Support
    Boot Camp: Windows commands on an Apple keyboard
    Windows does require language packs to be installed, if you want the physical keyboard to match the on-screen keyboard.

  • Macbook Pro late 2011 suddenly slow after months using Yosemite. Never noticed kernel_task until this happened.

    My MacBook Pro late 2011 has recently slowed to snails pace after successfully running Yosemite from a clean install for many months.
    I always have Activity monitor running to keep an eye on memory and CPU.  When the issue started, I noticed Kernel_task for the first time and its 0.5 to 1GB.
    I have verified/repaired the disk and repaired permissions in Safe Mode.  Also done SMC and PRAM resets.
    CPU usage is usually 2% or less unless number crunching in Excel or watching videos.
    I created a new user account, which is much faster in opening Safari and searching.  There is no Kernel_task showing for the new user.
    Cardo-updater is for a motorcycle bluetooth headset.
    Xquartz is for GIMP.
    Rogueamoeba is for Audio Hijack Pro.
    These three have been in use since day 1 of Yosemite and before in Mavericks.
    Etrecheck results
    Oddities - I don't know what the disk info not mounted means.  Not mounting the Recovery disk looks scary to me as uninformed.
    Time machine disk too small - thought I was using a 1 TB drive !!
    Problem description:
    MBP late 2011 has become very slow after a few months after a Yosemite clean install.  Kernel_task memory circa 1 GB.  CPU activity is a few percent.  Created a new user. Activity monitor does not show Kernel_task at all.  Much faster as the new user. Permissions repaired in Safe mode.  SMC and PRAM reset done.  Short hardware test (option D on boot) - no problems.  I have VirtualBox to run XP at times for some Win apps.
