MacBook Pro problem

Hello!

Firstly I would like to say hello to everyone, that's my first post!

And now... I've got huge problem with my rMBP 13" (late 2013) - it does not read the hard drive. I'm pretty sure that my ssd is damaged. I was looking for any replacement with bigger storage (as I have just 256gb) - could you tell me if there's any option to get any of them now?

Thanks,
Michael.

It should still be under warranty, so you can take it back to the Apple store and have them look at it. I'm not sure if the rMBP uses mSATA, M.2 or a proprietary connector for their SSDs though, so can't advise on replacement parts.

It's a proprietary connector. The SSDs on that gen are PCIe, not SATA.

Thought so. Official Apple parts only then if you want to upgrade OP.

So I can't get any replacement parts from any other sources? I've got an appointment in Apple store on thursday, but I'm looking for a replacements as well. Duh I could check the storage options before purchasing mbp

Yep. As to where to find one, only suggestion I can think of is eBay.
