I am thinking 1TB instead of a 500GB since I am already reaching capacity. I am assuming that part of the variance in prices I see is due to speed and storage capacity. I see some SSD that are 600-700, for only a few hundred dollars more you could buy a brand new MacBook Air. If this is true, what is the opinion on how much to invest in a machine that is aging with technology? My understanding is the next macOS is going to be compatible with my machine, so I think this machine should be good till 2020-2021, is this a bad assumption? Is it worth going to a SSD at this point in the life span of a MacBook Pro? Questions: There are a ton of SSD options There are hybrids SSHD drives, but I am not sure if it is really worth spending the money, so unless someone wants to make a real case for it, I am thinking of just sticking with replacing to a SSD. What I am thinking about with regards to SSD?

I have removed all necessary apps from the boot up list.

I have done some clean up to the machine, but any articles or references on how to "clean" the machine, I do welcome.

I just bought a new battery this month, and plane to replace it as I received the replace soon sign a few months ago, now have the replace battery warning.

This is just for media storage, photos, movies, music, etc.

I have replaced the optical drive with a HDD kit for a 5400 RPM 1.5TB drive.

I currently have the original 500G HDD as my boot up disc.

I want to make the machine perform quicker. It is just noticeably slower than before as things happen with older laptops, and I am ready to see about addressing it.Īdditionally, it slows down when running multiple applications, so when using resource heavy applications such as Firefox, or League of Legends (game software), I tend to close everything else.

It maybe longer, I will need to time it to verify. So here is my situation: Great MacBook Pro 2011, I love it, and I believe it is one of the better series of machines Apple has produced due to its upgrade ability and longevity.
