I own a MBP 13" mid-2012 2.9Ghz
long time ago I replaced the HDD with an SSD (currently a 256Gb Samsung 850 PRO ) placing the original 750Gb HDD in an optibay.
Now, the 750GB are almost completely filled up (I shoot a lot of raw pics, and I like to keep them all with me) , so I think I'm going to replace this HDD with a new one with 2TB.
Any advice?
I guess I can stick with SATA II drives, right? What if I mount a SATA III drive? Will it work anyway (even if not at SATA III speed I guess)? It might be a good idea to buy a sata3 anyway as with a quick search I've notices sata2 drives of that size are getting rare and cost as much as a sata3... what do you think?
Any suggestion about specific models?
Thanks
