I install this SSD into my MacBook Pro 2011 that was running too slow. Installed new OS and all is well now, this Mac is running like new now.

Thank you so much for your kind words and thank you for shopping with us! We're very happy to have you as a customer. My name is Robert, I am the owner of Macfixit Australia and I was hoping that if you had a little more time and if it was not too much trouble perhaps you could also leave a note of your positive experience under the Google Reviews webpage for us as well. We find that unless we ask our customers, we very rarely have any positive notes left under this Google Review page and it certainly helps other potential customers in the decision making to determine if they should purchase from us. If you left your positive note I would very much appreciate it. Please find the short link to the Google Reviews website under below: https://search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=ChIJkafLvSFd1moRGQSKVe-ISS8 Thank you for your time and we hope to see you in our store again soon.

I did the swap out of the Optical drive for the 250GB OWC Mercury Electra 6G SSD Solid State Drive - 7mm with the Data Doubler kit into my 2011 21.5in iMac, the drive is great, the speed difference is amazing, instant success. If you feel the install looks a bit daunting don’t hesitate to get a pro to install it, there can be one or two glitches with tiny, fiddly connections, its well worth the money. Thanks Macfixit for your great support and help.

Drive fitted perfectly, the computer now has a new energy, much better than the original HD.

Had to buy 2 new SATA ribbons — the first (an expensive one from Macfixit) still didn't work; the second (a cheapie from eBay) did the job. Apparently this is a known shortcoming of the SATA ribbons in the MacBook Pro 2012 models.

I bought the SSD to update my 2011 Macbook Pro and it works like a dream - feels like a new machine. The ordering process was easy and quick.
