Long time lurker here. I upgrade Macs quite a bit at work but I've never done an SSD. I finally bought myself a macbook pro mid 2012 model and want to install the opti-bay setup. My question is: How does the compatibility work?

On Windows machines it's basically this: If it's the right size (say 2.5") and the right connection (SATA 3) you're pretty much good to go. I hear this isn't the same for macs. I've been to crucial which has good prices but I want to shop and find the best deal for what I want (128g-256) Does anybody know if any 2.5 data 3 will do? Thanks in advance for your help

-Matt
