Upgrade Hard Drive

I would re-consider SSD, I recently upgraded my cMBP 13" to this:

For $350 you get 500gb. After going SSD you'll never go back to mechanical drives... Shutdown/startup times are ~10 seconds and everything is generally much faster.

Prices are dropping fast and someone around here posted a link to 1tb ssd's, but they are still pricey around $800 but they'll come down. Prices right now for 500gb ssds are linear compared to 128/256gbs.

 

then go for the MoXT,you won't regret it.

 

If you can live with 256GB then SSD is the way to go. If you need more space, then MoXT works great. IMO $350 is too much to spend on anything but the very latest laptop, so I put MoXTs in our 2011 machines and they make a world of difference. We get 12-15 second boots and the apps you use most frequently load instantaneously.
