Hey,
After looking into it for some time I think I am going to go ahead with a 256GB SSD upgrade for my 2012 13" Macbook Pro.
I was hoping for some advice before I go ahead with the order, feedback appreciated.
1) Is the Samsung 830 SSD still the best drive to go for or should I consider the 840 drive or even Corsair alternatives?
2) Are SSD drives likely to be affected by January sales so should I wait until then?
3) If I want to do a clean install of OSX to the SSD how would I do this? And can I then transfer data from a time machine backup?
4) A curve ball question, but how much do Macbook Pros go for second hand? Is it worth considering selling the Macbook and upgrading to a 13" Retina display model?...
Cheers
