Hello everyone!
I've bought a rMBP 13 a few days ago but now I wanted to swap my SSD from the original Apple 256GB 1,8" SSD with an ordinary 2,5" SSD with more GigaByte. I know it's quite complicated so I hoped that someone would know how it works.
After doing a whole lot of research I figured that there's only 2 ways to do that:
1) Buy an "OWC" SSD with 480GB, because that's the only company that has rebuilt the Apple SSD for rMBP's so far & replace it with ease.
2) Try to find a cable which has a S/ATA connector (female) on one side and a rMBP Logicboard connector (male) on the other side. The 2,5" SSD would then be placed below the Trackpad, there's enough room if you remove the Apple 1,8" casing.
So here's the thing, I don't wanna throw my 2,5" SSD away (or sell it) that's why I'm trying to find that cable! My question is, do you know if that cable excists? I tried to find it everywhere!
Thank you for your help
