As my Macbook late 2009 is very slow I want to replace the harddisk DDR3 with a new harddisk
SSD. Which one can I buy that will fit in my Macbook 6,1 13".
Upgraded with Mac OSX 10.7.5 (Lion) - serial SATA is NVDIA GeForce 9400 M
thank you
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.3)
{DDR3 is a specification of the random access memory (RAM) in the computer, it does not describe the hard drive.}
Any 7 mm SSD drive will fit. The physical dimensions are shown in the diagram. These are standard, you only have to specify "laptop drive" - they are all the same size.
Your computer has a 3.0 Gbps Serial ATA (SATA) interface. This is also called SATA 2. You can use a SATA 2 or a SATA 3 drive.
In sum then, you should look for SATA2 or SATA3 laptop drive.
Sorry I do not know the names of hard drive vendors in Germany. I suggest you look for reliable brand names like Intel, Crucial, etc. I have also used OCZ and Samsung. No complaints.

thank you for your early reply. Crucial and Samsung were already on my list. My problem also was what compares to 3.0 giga of the Serial ATA.
Now I can look for SATA2 or SATA3 drive. Regards Jane
