💾 HGST Travelstar 2.5-Inch 750GB Internal Hard Drive 7200 RPM SATA II 16 MB Cache (0S03339) [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging] Review

This review will help you if you want to try it in Apple for the first time. My daughter has a 2009 aluminum unibody MacBook (model 1278, found on the bottom of the MacBook). It came with a 160GB hard drive and after 3 years and 20,000 photos it was several GB full. I found out how to replace the hard drive on ifixit.com. I ordered this Hitachi 500 GB 7200 RPM drive. Don't worry, the original is Sata and this one is Sata II. Doesn't matter. It is backward compatible. I was also told by ifixit…

This hard drive was very easy to install in this old HP laptop, although first removing about 20 screws. (Check your computer's manual as most laptops only require removing a few screws.) I used a small tray to keep track of the tiny screws and to distinguish between the three different types of screws To make things easier, I created a bolt table. I used an external USB hard drive adapter with an old hard drive to transfer files and settings using a Windows program (by that name!). I copied…
