lol jokes on u, i don’t even have a battery in it

Tech Savvy Unboxing how’s that cut in half cpu performance

@@jellyjordy1154 Don't know about performance but it should be waaaaay lighter to carry. 🏋️‍♂️

I've never done that in 25 years, and never had even one issue.

EXACTLY!!! You risk destroying the computer!

FloatingSpaces did u update to ssd yet, if so how's the performance???

Sammy davis it should definitely be faster but not as fast as the one in the video since the 2008 MBP has only a SATA 2 connection if I remember

her? *her??*

I would like to know if it helped, Im gonna try it out anyways. But i would like to know.

hi lil’ late but on what version of mac os is your mac? and is it still running great? thanks a lot

Also getting a replacement battery,on my 3rd battery since new. Last one swelled up, so hopefully this one will do better; from macsales.com.

This is what I’m looking for not just backing up my Mac into an external hardrive

I can't find any help online. I tried to plug in a Euphoria 404HD in my 2016 macbook air and in the preferences where you klik on the spkr icon and it says use this input, it's greyed and wont klik. Any thoughts? thanks,crisinbigbear

@@scrunchymacscruff1244 I sold that computer last year and bought a new M1 MBP. No regrets that’s for sure. But in your case holding the command key down and the R key while it boots up didn’t allow for a recovery boot? As I understand it, that’s the only way to have the RECOVERY available.

@@Rob-bc4yu I am very dumb about protocol's..it's not even a third language to me. Can you explain in steps? On the MIDI install program when the block appears, it locks in the internal mike for a source and won't let me change the assignment (so I can see levels when I talk, being picked up by ..ready? themacsmikes. BELOW the rest of it is the clickable block that says USE THIS FOR INPUT, BUT ITS GREYED out (sorry, didn't meanto shout). I am stuck.

@@scrunchymacscruff1244 sorry, when I saw your post I assumed the 404HD was some type of hard drive. My initial response was based on swapping out the hard drive for an SSD style hard drive. However in your case, I am fairly comfortable with audio interfaces and have ran multiple brands and currently settled on the MOTU 2. The only interface that gave me problems was an older Alesis 8 channel FireWire. And that was due to updating the apple OS software, it would no longer function. Something about the software certificate no longer being valid. My best advice, is if you knew someone with another interface that you could plug in and see if the Mac recognized it. Or go to a music store, and do the old buy and return. But maybe check to see if your Mac is running the current operating system. Could be as simple as updating but could also be due to a recent update. Aren’t computers fun lol. Anyway, hope that helps in some small way. Curious to know if you get it running or atleast get a different brand running. Cheers.

@@Rob-bc4yu I might try that, anyway..thanks

What song is it?

2010 aint nothing. I got a 2008 and its still working

@Bobby Papoutsis my 2009 has the Intel Core 2Duo

Thinking of doing this aswell, the only thing holding me back is compatibility between the older software and today's programs and software (photoshop, lightroom, music editing software, etc.) Do you know if the new versions are at all compatible with the older mac OS?

@@Th4tGuY178 After you do the upgrades (ram, SSD etc.) upgrade the system OS to Mojave. It will run very smoothly and yes it's compatible with photoshop, Lightroom, final cut pro etc. That's the whole reason why you should upgrade the internals, so you can run the latest Mac OS with ease.

Did you find out?

yeah you can. You can use the time machine to do it. Otherwise 1st format the external hard drive with the same file journal system as the main os hard drive. Then reboot but make sure you press and hold the option + R key till you come to system repai. From there you select the source and destination once you click the disk utility function. restart.

Stanley Mena DjStanRD yes, your actually cloning your hard drive

ifixit.com answers these types of questions

He may have different ram or faster SSD

ram has nothing to do with it. They obviously have a faster ssd

It might be the connection on the motherboard, cannot support those speeds.

It boils down to which SSD you installed. Older SSDs just were just not as fast as current SSDs but they still were faster than all but the most exotic hard drives. There are a variety of reasons, most of which the average consumer has no visibility into but if the interface is not at least a SATA 3, then you can assume that it just will not be as fast as today's SSD because the SATA 1 and SATA 2 interfaces just are not very fast. Its all very relative, if your SSD does not measure very well in benchmarks tests it still might work perfectly well for everyday tasks. The next most important thing to upgrade is to the latest version of macOS, because the newer versions have been optimized to give such better performance when using an SSD (due to SSDs having very different performance characteristics than traditional hard disk drives). I would not worry about it unless you are copying massive amounts of very larges files every single day. For daily tasks your SSD might work just fine.

old macbooks uses sata 2 interface which goes up to only 250mbps no matter how fast the ssd is. and some ssd have slower speed too, my corsair force 3 only got 80mbps write and 200 mbps read

CatWild Leon yes. Definitely. I’ve just bought a duo core 2, it came with 8gb Ram inside and it responds as quick as my i5 retina pro but it is slow loading. I’m ordering parts next pay day.

You might need to update the internal HDD cable to a SSD cable. They have them ar macsales.com cheap.

www.macsales.com you can find specifications for the RAM and SSD for every macbook.

let me understand, u replaced your old hhd for a brand new ssd and u cant initialize de operating system? or u cant use your old hdd as an external drive?

There are many factors in Mac speed ups. One resource I discovered which successfully combines these is the Mels Speed Method (check it out on google) definately the no.1 resource i've seen.Check out all the awesome info .

Hey everyone, the best info that I have ever had was by using the Mels Speed Method (just google it) definately the most helpful remedy that I have ever tried.

@Kali Southpaw Thank you. What do you know about date and time settings, and will that prevent being able to upgrade the OS after the mods...

Ypu csn do this. But youll need a ssd cable upgrade also. Macsales.com has them

Hugh Jazz you clear and format the ssd as they did in the video, then download the latest macOS installer from the app store and format a usb drive as an OS installer (there are plenty of forums/websites online that tell you exactly how it’s pretty simple), then once you have put the SSD into the mac you plug the usb in and hold option and the power button for 10 seconds and it will let you select the usb to open the installer to install macOS onto the ssd

Or you can boot up the Mac while holding Command R (recovery mode) and download the OS over WiFi. It'll take longer, but it is easy.

It already does.

Minecraft Gamer yes those are good speeds

Youll also need to upgrade the internal hdd cable to a ssd cable. Macsales.com has them cheap.

Oops! you are out of luck mate. You can upgrade the PCIe SSD module though. The RAM is soldered to the motherboard so you can't upgrade that unless you got some soldering skill. Sad thing that from 2015 MacBook and 2016 MBP onward apple has extended this soldering technique to both RAM and SSD.

macbook airs are a little different. Depending on the year, you still might be able to replace it though.

To my knowledge even the original 2008 MacBook Air has an embedded/soldered RAM. Only the SSD can be replaced. Kinda a bummer! Only way to replace the RAM is to desolder the chips and upgrade it. I saw on a Chinese you tube video where a lady does logic level repair and changes the chip.

You can keep the ram you have.

Maybe some bloatward on your comp man.

@@ak47ava Nah, I wiped the hard drive and did a fresh install, didn't restore from backup.

i have one of 2gb, would take those $37 ...

Exactly what i was thinking MR37137

Charles Morzo just get any ssd off eBay and your good to go

Your hdd cable might not handle the ssd speeds. 2010-2011 models need a 2012 cable to work properly. Thats why the video is really for 2012 models. Other videos show older models upgrading the cable too.

You need DDR3L SODIMM memory for ram And any 2.5 inch sata ssd with the 9.5mm adapter for installing it into the laptop 9.5mm adapter: www.amazon.com/EDGE-7mm-9-5mm-Spacer-Adapter/dp/B014LQM6I2 Some compatible ram and ssds: www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/Apple/macbook-pro-%2813-inch%2C-early-2011%29

goto "crucial.com" and get it from there, I put a great ssd in my 2009 which i then moved a year after to the 2012 mbp

You got any recommendations for where to get a good replacement battery? alot of dodgy brands around

Got a link for stuff you bought

I don’t have a link but I got everything from ramjet

Santiago Hernandez wtf you talking about? RAM is read access memory it’s like saying what if I download more brain...

The 2 “chip bars” hr replaces at 1:40 are the RAM, it’s hardware not software

Santiago Hernandez this is the best I’ve ever read.

well then you download more ram and thats it

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😂😭😂😆😆😆

邵涵 they're rumored to announce a new MacBook Pro VERY soon!

2017 macbook sucks. We will have to wait for the quad core 2018 or 2019. Meanwhile a 8 GBRAM SSD 2010 macbook works just awesome. And the apple icon has light, which is the most important feature

Why buy that junk. 2012 models rule.

well to make it like new or is it necesary to buy those parts

you need the SSD and potentially the RAM to make a dramatic difference in performance.

ssd?

Solid State Drive, sometimes called Flash Storage. See here for the difference: www.storagereview.com/ssd_vs_hdd

ssd and flash storage is not the same.

Anthony Bolduc nope. After 2012 Apple started using parts that cannot be replaced.

you may be able to replace the ssd by also buying an adapter (you’ll have to look up the connector in your machine) and use it with an msata or m.2 ssd. i did it with my late 2012 retina but i’m unsure whether or not there are adapters available for mid 2013s? the ram is soldered in though so that’s not removable at all

NismoFury other world computing (they alwYs have them) or I think I got the last one on Amazon

Doubled the RAM from 4 GB to 8 GB. Useful if you're one of those people with a dozen tabs and a handful of apps open at once.

Where does he get 8gb for $37?

runs a sodimm or drr3l

I don't know where the hell does he get any ram for that price but in 2018 I jut bought the crucials 4+4 GB 1066 Mhz which are the only good quality brand available for the 2010 version for 114€ and I feel rapped.

Usually both newegg and amazon have good prices in the USA. However this video is from 2016 and RAM this old starts to go up and price due to supply/demand issues. Not much RAM from 2012 floating around.

Alan Xu RAM is soldered in macbook pros from late 2012 onwards, HD/SSDs are still removable up until the 2015 pro models

. I know the mid 2012 glossy MD104LL/A is fully upgradeable. The last fully upgradeable model with highest specs. All retinal display models from 2012 and up Ram is soldered.

David J why waste $1500 on the new macs that can’t be upgraded when you can by a Mac for under$200 and upgrade it. My 2010 MacBook unibody just got upgraded to 16gb ram and 250gb ssd and it’s just as fast as the new macs except for screen quality but it only cost a total of $400 and it gets the job done and I can even play high end games on it even though it’s not recommended lol.

Cheers for reply but I can't see any Macs for 200usd.

David J they are actually $150 now I bought mine 2 years ago for $250 but there on eBay I’ll find u a link

David J google MacBook unibody 2010 and Walmart and amazon will pop up with them for $169 and then you can just upgrade by going to OWC.com and they sell all the Mac parts u need and just input the model MacBook and they will show you your upgrade options. I recommend 16 gb ram and 250gb crucial ssd echo you can get for a little less then $100 and the ram is like $150-$170

Cheers ears! That's really kind.
