Question: Replacing My SSD in My MacBook Pro 2012

I'm looking to replace my SSD in my 13inch MacBook Pro Mid 2012 (4GB, 2.5GHz), is a "PNY CS900 480GB Internal SSD Series 2.5 SATA III" a good choice?


MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.15

How is PNY customer support?


If you replace the drive for a 6G SSD also replace the SATAcable.




Hard to beat OWC/Macsales customer support/warranty, a trusted vendor well ahead of the curve all things Mac.

Any SATA 3 SSD is fine, the chipsets mostly come from the same factory.

The RAM in that 2012 is expandable to 16GB if you want to go crazy

I'll second what LD says about OWC, they're on the ball with Mac stuff, I've used them since the 90's. I have two Macs with OWC SSD's, good drives.
