Searching for a 1TB hard drive for my early 2011 MacBook Pro

I am searching for a 1TB external hard drive for my early 2011 MacBook Pro. Want to make sure that what I buy will connect successfully. Need to backup all of my photos and videos as my start up disk is full.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), iOS 8.4.1

Any 2.5" SATA HDD will be compatible with your MBP. Here is a selection offered by OWC:

There are other vendors as well.

I personally have had good success with HGST and Seagate HDDs. All brands will have their cheerleaders and detractors. 🙂

Ciao.
