    Easy Upgrade

    My wife's MacBookAir was down below 10% left of it's original capacity, so rather than wholesale deletions and cloud storage we decided to go with more internal storage. I ordered this product, along with the needed Torx screwdrivers, and began the installation upon it's very speedy delivery. The installation video was very straightforward, but I still had to give tech support a call when a glitch in booting up arose. Chris from tech support was very helpful in giving me the 3-key combo to start the restore process from the Time Machine backup. Once begun, the rest of the process was almost automatic. Thanks OWC!
