We all want our Mac computer to run fast. But if your MacBook starts to show its age, it’s probably not that speedy anymore.

Fortunately, for an older MacBook Pro (prior to 2013 models), there is a quick way to increase its performance — upgrading the internal hard drive to SSD (Solid State Drive).

If like me, you still love your older MacBook Pro (or yet to decide buying a new pricey MacBook), then this guide is for you.

I’m going to share with you a list of the best SSD drives for MacBook Pro, and show you how to replace the internal hard drive with the new one, step by step — so you waste no time and make no mistakes.

P.S. I went with Crucial BX200 SSD (see below for my purchase receipt), and I’m quite happy with the performance it has brought to my Mac. But, it is now a legacy product and the company has several new better options like Crucial MX500.
