Wanting to replace my mid 2012 rMbpro 15" with an SSD

[twilexia]

Was wondering if the Samsung Evo 850 will fit? And if I need an adapter?

Won't fit. The Retina MacBook Pro's use a custom thin circuit board style.

Nope. The retina MacBook pros use "blade" style SSDs. If you want to upgrade, OWC and Trancend both offer upgrades.

I don't like OWC, so I'd go with the Trancend unit.

What don't you like about OWC? I haven't bought anything from them, but from what I've seen, they seem overpriced but their customers are generally happy/satisfied.

The overpriced part.

Your rMBP already comes with an SSD?
