Questions regarding hard drive upgrade on MBP if Bootcamp is already in use
I'm using a Late 2011 13" Macbook Pro running OSX Mountain Lion. I also have partioned my hard drive and am using Windows 7 with Bootcamp. In general I use OSX for school work and Windows for gaming.
I have already upgraded the RAM on my MBP from 4GB to 16GB and recently looked into upgrading my Hard Drive (currently 500 GB; 300 for OSX, 200 for Windows). I was interested in this SSD.
Here are my questions:
- Is this SSD compatible with my MBP?
- How should I back up my current hardrive before inserting a new one (I currently have a 2 TB WD My Passport for Mac).
- Is it possible to back up both operating systems and put them onto the new hard drive?
- Will I have to repartition the new hard drive?
- Will I need to buy a new Windows 7 license?
