"I want the model of the hard drive that can be fitted in the laptop"

All the information you need is in the link I gave and which you've already looked at.


"Any apple techs here to help"

No Mina. This is a user-to-user forum. In other words we are just like you. However - as it happens - I am an Apple Tech and the advice still stands. If that's not good enough then book an appointment at your nearest Apple Store or Apple Authorised Repair Centre. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to help.


Good luck

Your reply does not answer my question.

I looked at this site before posting the question

https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook-air/macbook-air-faq/macbook-air-late-2010-how-to-replace-upgrade-storage-ssd-hard-drive.html

There is nothing mentioned about the type of the hard drive.

I do not want a link to a site to buy ssd drive. I want the model of the hard drive that can fitted in the laptop.


There is no hard drive in it to know the details which would saved me the time and effort to post the question here.

Also, I got ssd m.2 chip which does not fit inside that laptop.


So, the model is the key here to get another chip.

Anyone has this info. Any apple techs here to help.


Thanks,

Mina

Your's is the 13" mid-2011 model. You can narrow it down to exact processor etc by looking at all the details in "About This Mac" from your Apple Menu. You have to be fairly competent to attempt this yourself.


OWC may be the best place for SSD flash storage upgrades for your particular model?

If none of the above offers you an upgrade path then consider running your MacBook off a larger (500+GB etc) externally attached drive. Small form factor SSD SATA drives installed into drive caddies work well, are easily available, far cheaper and involve less effort than flash storage drives.


Good luck.
