Hello there, hope you're all snazzy. I am seeking a little bit of assistance, more for confirmation than anything, to check I will be going about this in the way way.
I am wanting to upgrade the hard drive of my early 2011 13-inch MacBook Pro. My disc drive stopped working a long time ago and I would like to replace it with a new solid state hard drive for the OS, as well as having a regular hard drive as a partition for the majority of the space. I'm thinking a 250GB solid state should do, and a 1TB hard drive.
I just wanted to check that this was possible, and what brands should I look for, what brands I should avoid, and if there is anything else I should keep in mind or know about before going into this. One thing I am needing to find out is what size hard drives can fit into a 13" MacBook Pro. I am assuming I can download the OS upon installing the HDs. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
