![]() I mean that shouldn't the case for a "Pro" computer, where "professionals" need to upgrade, replace, repair, etc. If it works I hope this helps some people out there who could get a cheaper mid-2017 MBP (with Function Keys) and then upgrade the SSD storage size, because honestly I do not understand how the hell the newer ones have the SSDs soldered to the motherboard?!?! _How it compares to the original one (Speeds & Temperatures) ![]() _Fits in the adapter (some reviewers said they had issues installing that model in their PC) I'll order the Sabrent 2TB right away and keep you guys posted as wether it: Ok, I was just afraid that as from factory they didn't "expect" to see 2TB, when installing my 2TB the computer would not "recognise" it. Thanks a LOTTTT for your help and I really hope someone has tried that before me with success !! ? any ideas? When closing the lid should push it back I guess but I'd like something more "professional". PS: the SSD fits fine and tight in the adapter, you have to insert it at 45°, but then there nothing to push it back flat against the adapter. Do you think that the SSD could get too hot and too close to the CPU and damage it or get damaged? The lid should close fine when putting the MacBook Pro back together.ĭo you guys think I should stop this insane endeavour or it shouldn't be very problematic? I am mainly doing audio (ProTools, Ableton.), no gaming, no video. Note that once installed it would be sitting lower and looks like it would be really close to the CPU but hopefully not touching it. It hangs over some components and a bit of the CPU. ![]() ![]() I have not removed the original SSD, just trying the new one on top of it to see how it would fit. It fits perfectly on the adapter, but then when trying to install the whole thing, half of the new SSD stick out on top of the rest of the motherboard. So I bought some Samsung 970 EVO Nvme M.2 1TB SSD. These come with special SSD drives, and by chance I found an adapter on eBay that I had never seen before (see picture).īasically it is advertised as being made for installing M.2 SSD on a A1708 MacBook Pro, and it has the same shape as the original Apple SSD. I just bought a brand new A1708 13" mid-2017 i5 MacBook Pro (Function keys) that only has 128GB internal SSD. ![]()
