MBP HD Upgrade

[Sky]

Hi!

I am considering buying a MPB from Amazon, and I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade the hard drive later. I'd like to replace it with a 250GB running at 7200RPM.

Thank you!

Would this void the warranty?

For a previous MacBook Pro that I had, I upgraded to a 250 GB hard drive and sent it into MacService.com. Wonderful job, price a bit steep, but I'm really not that handle on doing jobs like this on my own.

Now, this MacBook Pro is with another proud and satisfied owner.

Thank you for the suggestion, I appreciate it!

I know people around here are tired of members who do not use the search forums feature, but can we be a little nicer here about this?

Search is a good thing, I know I like personal opinion though, up to date personal opinion, things change. In my opinion get the drive do it yourself, it always possible to upgrade later i suggest you wait for the M6 spinpoint from samsung 500GB.

Cheers

hey fredrickyoon,

if you use macservice.com, does this void the warranty?

either the regular warranty or apple care?

thanks
