Also if I took it into an apple store to get installed how much would it cost? Any ideas?
Hi Chris,
I am not aware of any compatibility issues between that SSD and your machine. I've purchased a couple of their SSD drives and the install was quick and easy. Although I haven't installed one of their drives into the MBP 5,1 (Late 2008), I have installed SSDs and normal SATA drives into the same body style and there's been significant reworking between the models that I've come across. Just make sure you have the appropriate tool for the drive screws and you'll be all set.
Regarding the install, the Apple Store will not install 3rd party components into your machine. Nor do they sell HDs that they will install. Apple will only install the RAM you buy there or replace parts as a result of a service.

Hi,
I just bought a new Macbook Pro 15" with SSD 256 Gb and its almost a brand-new (the 4th time to use the device) a while ago i was trying to connect to my home wireless network it said that the connection is timed out so i clicked the airport sign on the top it said that your airport is not configured then I restarted the system but it didn't restarted it showed the grey screen with the apple logo and the spinning wheel for more than 10min so I tried the force shutdown by pressing the power button till it switched off I waited for 5min then pressed the power button to start or boot the system and again the grey screen with the apple logo and the spinning wheel, I waited for more than 20min nothing changed, any solution please?
Your help is really appreciated"Thanks a lot i followed the instructions for safe mode (i found out that i was pressing the C button after restarting) i did whats written there but the repair couldn't be performed so in addition i needed to re-formate the HD so i erased the volume and then repaired the disk--> quite disk utilities --> start the installation from the installation DVD.
Thanks really appreciating your help -
Can I use a SATA cable from a 2007 MacBook Pro for an SSD in a 2011 MacBook Pro?
Trying to replace the optical drive on my MacBook Pro with an SSD. The only SATA cable I have is from a 2007 model. Will that work? Also, I can't find a good sled for the drive... Will literally taping it in place suffice until I find such a sled?
An 85 watt charger will be fine. Generally, you can use a higher-powered charger than the one that came with your MBP - but using a lower-powered charger is not recommended.

Installing Win 7 Pro as VM on Macbook Pro with 128G SSD
Hi there,
I've been searching for some good tips about installing Win 7 Pro as a VM on my new Macbook Pro (4GB i7 version) with a 128 SSD.
Here is what I have and need to achieve:
I have Parallel 6 to set up the VM;
Win 7 Pro 32-bit or 64-bit.
Needs: I only plan to use the Win 7 VM for these:
1. Run MS Office 2010 Pro Plus -- For compatibility reasons, I just have to use the Window's version of Office, Office 2011 for Mac is not an option for me;
2. I use video conference a lot, so I need to be able to control the built-in Webcam and Mic of my Macbook Pro from the Windows side, any speical driver I need?
3. I need to share some files between Mac and Win, but I guess the VM works fine for this kind of task.
3. As you can see, I only have limited hard drive space, any foreseeable issue with what I need to install?
Any tip is much appreicated!You should probably post the Parallels forums: http://forums.parallels.com

Mid 2009 MacBook Pro not reading SSD? Help
I have bought a Kingston Hyperx SSD for my mid 2009 MacBook Pro but the laptop does not see the SSD. I have booted the SSD externally installed OSX and it boots fine on the laptop but NOT when fitted internally. Is this a firmware/software problem or is my MacBook simply not compatible with this drive? I have tried everything I can think of and the IT guy at my work has not got a clue either! ImGuessing a standard HD will work but as my old HD died I wanted to go to SSD.
Need some help ASAP!
Thanks!
SamThe 2009 models were notorious for having faulty SATA cables and I'm betting that's the problem. Go to www.ifixit.com, find the part number for the SATA cable and search eBay for a replacement cable (ifixit simply want too much for the cable - and I've never known anyone who has received a faulty cable from anyone on eBay).
I'm at least 95% certain that's your problem.
Good luck,
Clinton

What can i do to format, image and use the SSD as the primary drive on my macbook pro?
Install the SSD in an enclosure and connect it to the MBP via USB.
Open Disk Utility>Erase and format the drive to Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
Then select Disk Utility>Restore.
Drag the internal HDD to the Source field. Drag the SSD to the Destination field. Click on the Restore button.
This may take a few hours depending upon how much data has to be transferred.
When complete, Boot the MBP with the OPTION key.
Select the SSD and if it boots the MBP, swap the two drives.

I am a twelve year old boy ready to get my first Mac computer. I already have an iPad 3 and I really like it. Now I'm going to start saving up for a Mac and I am down to two choices, as listed above. I'm going to be using it for web browsing, games, drawing, word documents, presentations, movies, video calling, messages, Windows 8 and I will be using quite a few apps from the Mac App Store.
Also could you tell me how long Apple support the MacBook Air with the latest version of OS X and how long they support the MacBook Pro with the latest OS.
I also want to know if it is worth paying £200 to upgrade a 128GB SSD to a 256GB one.If past history serves, Apple will support the 2013 models for 5-7 years with new OS upgrades but there's no guarantee. However that doesn't mean the computer will be worthless. I have a 10-11 year old Mac serving as a guest computer running an OS two versions old. It still does everything our guests would want to do while they are visiting.
The 128GB drive is the smallest I'd recommend and for a teen (who is likely to collect media and lots of software) I'd call the 256GB a very good idea - especially ince you indicate you want to run Win8 too.
The retina MacBook has a gorgeous display and has a faster processor but all those extra pixels push the GPU to the max. Until faster GPUs come along I'm avoiding the retina computers. -
Macbook Pro 15" 16Gb, SSD HD, Keeps Freezing (Logs Included )
Hi all, I have a 2012 MacBook Pro
2.4 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
256gb SSD (98gb free)
Running OS X 10.8.4 (12E55)
My problem is that it keeps crashing/freezing at random points during the day and it requires a manual restart thus I keep losing parts of my work. Many people seem to be having a similar problem but no one seems to have a solution. So I thought I would post my logs during the crash to see if any one can figure it out.
Regards
Gary

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; } | open -f -a TextEdit
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' | open -f -a TextEdit
Step 4
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -f -a TextEdit
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal. -

MacBook Pro w 16GB & SSD slow; kernal_task using 4GB
I've got processor and memory issues with my MacBook Pro. I have 16GB of memory and an SSD drive.
Kernal_Task routinely uses 3 or 4GB of memory. And lots of times, various apps are pegging the processor, and my fans go crazy. Kernal_Task and WindowServer are the ones sys related that seem to show up most in Activity monitor for large processor usage. Especially WindowServer.
System used to scream. Something seems to have gone wrong.
I tried to delete the plist file named for my OS version in down in Library/extensions and in the contents of ACPI_SMC_PlatformPlugin.kext under resources as per several posts here, but my system doesn't have that file.
Here's my EntreCheck report, I'd love any help or ideas.

Installing on macbook pro with 2 ssd (raid 0, no optical)
I would like to install Windows on my early 2011 macbook pro with a dual ssd (2x120 GB) raid 0 configuration. I have OS X 10.9.2 installed currently on a single logical partition. Is there any way I can install Windows without formatting my raid setup? Would it be smarter to re-format and setup one drive to boot to Windows and one drive to boot Mac OS X? Any advice would be helpful. I am interested in installing Windows primarily for gaming purposes.
Thanks!You should probably post the Parallels forums: http://forums.parallels.com

I'm wanting to do some upgrades (both hardware and software). I have a MacBook Pro 4,1 (early 2008, 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo, 4GB RAM, OS10.6.8).
1- Is it possible to swap out the internal HDD for an SSD? If so, what model is recommended? I would be looking for one that is fairly cost effective, yet reliable, and at least 500GB.
2- How compatible would this upgrade be with dual booting (partition 1 being Lion, and partition 2 being Snow Leopard)?
3 (and possibly the most important)- Will these upgrades cause any ill effects to Final Cut Studio 3? I can't afford to lose any of my current capabilities.You can install a SSD in your macbook - be advised however, your new ssd will not perform at the advertised speed you see printed in the box since your Macbook 4.1 comes with a SATA 1 controller which is rated at 1.5GB/s. So if the SSD you purchased has an advertised speed of 500MB/s read and 500MB/s write, the best you can achieve with your Macbook is 200MB/s read and 200MB/s write. Don't get me wrong, that is still faster than your conventional drive.
When purchasing your ssd, make sure you purchase a SSD with sata II and not sata III since most sata III ssd is not backwards compatible with sata I controller. -
New Macbook Pro - 8Gb or SSD??
Hello, everyone! I´m about to buy the new Macbook pro 17-inch and really need help deciding wich upgrade is best for me: SSD or 8Gb?
Ok, so this is what I need this computer for: run an intensive graphics application under Windows 7 64-bits via Paralles 6, windows installed after Paralles and not in bootcamp (I didn´t want to partition my drive).
This is exactly what I have now in my 2010 i7 Macbook pro 4Gb RAM and it´s struglling to run the program... I need to shut down any other application and still get that annoying spinning ball all the time.
*So what I want with my new mac? To run this Windows program smoothly as if it was installed directly on my macOS system! So I thought of an upgrade, either 8Gb RAM or an 128Gb SSD, as I can´t afford both at the same time.* Which upgrade would be best for my needs, any thoughts?
Thanks for your help! Cheers!
Message was edited by: rgobrasilI'm using mac for 4 years, and my major filed is graphic rendering on 3dsmax. my suggest is run your windows via boot camp. parallel or VMware is not a good option. i got my parallel but its useless after released of bootcamp (i need 100% of RAM, Graphic and processor for graphic rendering) . bootcamp is the best way if you wanna do something "heavy" on windows. what i'm doing is after i have done my works, then i run OSX for others job, keep restarting your machine isn't that bad. Also, you dont have to worry about RAM has been shared by 2 OS.

Macbook pro 5,2 ssd compatibility
I have a MacBook Pro 5,2 Early 2009. I recently tried to upgrade with an Intel 520 SSD and my mac will not recognize the SATA 6.0 and defaults to SATA 1.5. I want to find another SSD that will run at SATA 3.0 and I was hoping someone will share their experience and recommend a compatible ssd.
I found a solution. I reset the NAVRAM. Now the Intel 520 is running beautifully at SATA 3.0 negociated link speed. I folowed the link:

Macbook Pro late 2011 SSD compatibility
I installed a crucial m4 into my new macbook pro 13", and had a tonne of issues; spinning beach balls etc. After checking the problem online it became apparent that this problem was quite common and was due to the ssd being sata 3 and my laptop's connection being only sata 2. I tried every single fix that was recommended including the upgrading of the ssd firmware. This did not resolve the issue. I am now going to return the m4 and I am looking to buy another ssd. I assume that for 100% guaranteed compatibility i will have to go for a sata II SSD? If this is the case what is the fastest sata II SSD I can buy / what is the fastest ssd that is guaranteed compatible?
