Now my MacBook Air is more useful
My 2011 MacBook Air only has 64GB SSD. I had to be very careful in saving files and installing Apps, it had been a pain to use. I don't want to buy another macbook because it is just too expensive.Very pleased to find this one. Put it on, so far so good, hope it last. I will follow-up if I have any problem with it.The package provides everything you need to replace the SSD, including the right screwdrivers to open up Macbook Air, and instructions.Make sure you restore (duplicate) the original SSD to this one before put it on, it is in the instruction sheet.The installation is very straight forward, most people can do it,You may watch this Youtube video to see how to replace SSD:[...]Prop: Provide the enclosure so that you can utilize the replaced SSD as external drive, comes with the screwdrivers, and instructions.Cons: The instruction sheet is very small, it is hard to read. The SSD seems a little slower in boot up compared to the Apple original.Note: If you had upgraded your MBA to OS X Yosemite, don't press "Option" key, as instructed in the instruction sheet from the drive, to arise disk utility for restoring SSD. Instead, you need to press "Command" and "R" keys to arise, then you may follow the steps in the instruction sheet to restore SSD before put it on. It took me a while to figure out.Three months follow-up: It had been in my MBA for 3 month, with roughly 1~4 hr /day use, on and off, I had used up 100GB space. No issue at all, my MBA is as fast as when it was new. Definitely recommend to anyone! I still keep my old SSD just in case. But with the provided enclosure, it can be turned into a 64GB USB 3.0 external drive.(Update: May 2016), still working like a champ! Never had problem! Use my Mac everyday.(Update: Aug 2017), after 2 and a half year, it is still working like a champ. Not a single issue at all. Great quality product!(Update: Aug 2018), after 3 and a half year, it is still working like a champ. Not a single issue at all. Great quality product! Too bad for Apple that I don't need to replace my MacBook Air w/ this SSD update!

Davvero un ottimo prodotto!!!
avevo un macbook air 11,6 pollici da 64gb e ho deciso di comprare questo articolo. inizialmente ero diffidente dato che era una marca differente ma ho provato comunque a comprarlo. è arrivato imballato perfettamente nella sua scatola originale senza alcun segno di usura, quindi ottimo il corriere e ottimo anche amazon per i tempi.Cosa ho trovato nella scatola:L'ssd il case dove deve essere inserita la memoria per la migrazione dei dati dal vecchio ssd al nuovo, utile anche per usare la memoria sostituita come ssd esterno. un kit per smontaggio e apertura macbook che comprendeva due giraviti di differente misura, un sacchettino per proteggere il case ed infine un manuale con le istruzioni di migrazione della memoria.una volta installato tutto seguendo la procedura e migrato i dati non ho riscontrato nessun tipo di rallentamento nel mio macbook, anzi ho notato un leggero miglioramento delle prestazione dato che il mio pc è del 2010.in sintesi il prodotto è ottimo con un kit compreso per smontaggio e case esterno, ovviamente il prezzo è più alto rispetto ai normali ssd, ma comunque saranno soldi ben spesi se volete un pc più capiente e perchè no anche più veloce

Excellent ssd drive replacement kit
Had to order a replacement ssd drive for my 2010 macbook air as the drive in mine failed during an OSX update :( This was the best bet to get anything in Canada reasonably quickly - but ouch did I pay for it. This kit is pretty much 2x the price of the same thing in the US.Price aside, the kit itself is excellent - it comes complete with the two screwdrivers you need, and a usb powered aluminium hard drive caddy you can put the old drive into.New ssd was super simple to fit, took maybe 10 minutes. My fun and games began thereafter, as the whole idea of the caddy is you can use the old drive to re-install the OS and retreive your data etc. I didn't have that option with the old drive dead so it took me another hour or so to find a recovery image, and install it from a usb stick.As far as this drive kit goes though, if you need a replacement for an older macbook air in canada, fairly quickly, this is the best option I could find. Its good quality, and has everything you need in the box to replace your old drive.
