This is the second time I watch this video. I’m trying to figure out, why the four screws have to be removed from the old HDD drive and installed on the SSD drive. There’s no moving parts on the SSD. Drive, so what the function of the screws. What are then holding? And if there are that important how come there’s no explanation to why. And I don’t believe it will add that much cost or weight to the SSD drive for then not be pre-installed one the unit, so there is not fumbling around or loose then in the process. Thanks, Ed
Hi, Eduardo. The screws need to be installed on the SSD in order for it to remain properly and securely seated in the MacBook Pro. Here is a more in-depth video of the upgrade process. https://eshop.macsales.com/installvideos/macbookpro_13_unibody_mid12_hd/
Great giveaway. Been using macsales since powerPC days.
People forget how important a good backpack is in college, it is nice you included one in your kit.
Just a sugestion: try using a mat on your workbench. I noticed you have knooks & crannies on your bench, if a small screws falls in, it will make difficult to get it out. Maybe better tools, it will make more professional.
love the promise of the SSD!
I am so in need of winning this prize…
Nice prizes!!
Cool
