Do you need to upgrade the SSD in your MacBook Air 2010-2011**?

Even if your MacBook Air is on the, ahem…. older side, you can still replace or upgrade the SSD if it becomes faulty or if you just need a bit more room for your stuff.

Either way, we can help you find the right SSD without paying a fortune and avoid potentially costly mistakes.

The SSD in the MacBook Air 2010-2011** has what’s known as a proprietary connector, which in simple terms just means, its non-standard. To confuse things further, this is often described as SATA III or 6G (same thing, different name), but if you buy a standard SATA III/6G it will just not fit, no matter how much you wiggle it about! In fact, might not even be the right shape.

Here’s a few examples of our SSD’s which will be perfect for your MacBookAir 2010-2011**:
