Samsung SSD sale

If you don’t have one yet now might be the time. Just saw that 500GB is $73 and 1T is $127 on amazon.

The improvement it made on my ‘12 MBP was significant and thought I’d share.

Yep and 2TB $299!!

My Apple computer's always come fully spec'd top o' the line. Unfortunately this doesn't help a playa.

Thanks for the heads up! I'm definitely adding a 1TB SSD to my MBP after the holidays.

Keep in mind the newer Macbooks use a special SSD. A 1TB SSD is still around $400 for my Late 2013 model.

Yep, once you hit retina models you have to get the more expensive aftermarket upgrades.

Mid 2012 non-retina MacBook Pros and older will make best use of this. I think I'll bump my boot drive to 1TB so I can do some more editing. The last upgrade this 2012 will get is a 4TB SSD in the optibay, once those drop under $500.

NVME M.2 is a major uprgrade but only 3rd party SSD's are available using OS High Sierra so thats a no go for me.

Yup I put one in today and it is a night & day comparison.

Nice. Did you do a data doubler as well? That’s the tray that removes the cd drive and creates another HD spot. I did that as well. While I have everyone, can anyone reccomend
a good RAM source? Reasonable price and reliable are what I am looking for.

I have 16GB of OWC RAM in my 2012 MBP. The link is posted below:

Use the owc it's stable and reliable.
popnwave 6:57 PM - 28 November, 2018
Yep another vote for OWC from me as well. Both RAM and their optibay bracket are top notch.

Hmmm... I'm gonna have to look into that.
