Just upgraded to an SSD


my 2011 13" macbook pro bought university running pretty slow, ended replacing last november 27" imac retina. macbook has been sitting in room best part of year not being used, other when backed files on external hdd.

bit of project, decided i'd try ssd, wasn't using it. ordered sandisk 120gb ssd £30, , 64gb flash drive make bootable drive os - didn't need 1 space, figured come in handy - , swapped round today.

can wow. macbook hdd booted in 1:30-2mins, new ssd 15secs. default apps load pretty instantly , app store's speed vast improvement though it's running off slow internet (max 8mbs).

not going use intensive stuff, got imac that, general web browsing, etc. it'll great.

overall pleased.
 

have turned trim on.

enable trim, first save open documents reboot mac.

1) launch terminal.

2) type "sudo trimforce enable".

3) confirm want enable trim.

4) reboot mac.

verify trim enabled, click apple icon in top left of screen. choose "about mac" -> "system report" -> "sata/sata express" , entry "trim support". should "yes" if trim has been enabled.
