So is it worth upgrading ? I would say Yes! You still have quite a long life in your system (as long as you treat it with TLC). Now the last issue is apps unless you are looking for the next wis-bang app, what you now have is working for you then that's not likely to be a problem either (even the updates) Apple supports their OS's at least five years after a new OS is released, so if you are using High Sierra you've got at least 2024 before you will lose security updates. We don't have any crystal balls on what Apple will do with newer OS's but I wouldn't let that be your driver. So depending on what you're needs are you may need to think this through as well.

Unlike the MacBook Pro you currently have and depending on the newer MacBook Pro you may be also limited to that Intel graphics engine. The MacBook Air GPU services are quite limited as its using the integrated graphics engine within the Intel CPU unit. So keep that in mind as we go through things here. So if you are considering upgrading to either a MacBook Air or even any of the current MacBook Pro's you'll have to put most of your stuff onto an external drive. You appear to store a lot of stuff on your system currently with a dual drive config. My understanding is to use the 2012 cable, correct? Anyone know if it is sold on iFixit? Or another source? I read in another forum that if I replace the SSD I need to replace the hard drive/IR cable. What is a reasonable speed SSD? I know this is opinion, but I would assume any SSD is faster than what i have now. I am thinking 1TB instead of a 500GB since I am already reaching capacity. I am assuming that part of the variance in prices I see is due to speed and storage capacity. I see some SSD that are 600-700, for only a few hundred dollars more you could buy a brand new MacBook Air. If this is true, what is the opinion on how much to invest in a machine that is aging with technology?

My understanding is the next macOS is going to be compatible with my machine, so I think this machine should be good till 2020-2021, is this a bad assumption? Is it worth going to a SSD at this point in the life span of a MacBook Pro? Questions: There are a ton of SSD options There are hybrids SSHD drives, but I am not sure if it is really worth spending the money, so unless someone wants to make a real case for it, I am thinking of just sticking with replacing to a SSD. What I am thinking about with regards to SSD? I have removed all necessary apps from the boot up list.

I have done some clean up to the machine, but any articles or references on how to "clean" the machine, I do welcome.I just bought a new battery this month, and plane to replace it as I received the replace soon sign a few months ago, now have the replace battery warning.This is just for media storage, photos, movies, music, etc. I have replaced the optical drive with a HDD kit for a 5400 RPM 1.5TB drive.

I don't recommend this brand honestly.So here is my situation: Great MacBook Pro 2011, I love it, and I believe it is one of the better series of machines Apple has produced due to its upgrade ability and longevity. I wished I bought another brand but I went for the lower price point instead. My computer is super slow, much slower than the previous 8 gb of RAM in there prior. Overall Review: I have this item in a 2011 MBP 13" and it works terribly! I think there is either something wrong with this RAM or the product sucks big time.
