New 2012 13" Macbook Pro and Crucial M4 512GB SSD
Hello,
I am about to order a high-end 2012 13" MBP with the 750GB HDD. I am also placing an order for a Crucial M4 512GB SSD. Both should be coming in around the same time. I have seen videos on how to swap out the hard drives, so I am not worried about that. I was planning on not even turning on the MBP when it arrives and swapping out the drives immediately. So, essentially, the first time I turn on the computer will be with the new SSD.
I believe the MBP will come with a recovery disk/DVD???, so is it as simple as inserting that disk and then turning on the computer and following any instructions to install the OS on the new hard drive? Brand new to Mac, so I don't want to screw this up.
I was originally going to buy a loaded 13" MBA, but I think that by upgrading this computer to an SSD, it will perform better than the air . . . am I correct in that assumption?
Thanks, in advance, for your assistance.
Regards,
Mark
