Upgrading my MacBook’s Hard Drive

Hello Donald,

 

Please follow the instructions given below. Failure to follow could damage your equipments.

Donald, before you replacing the hard drive, makes sure you back up your data from your existing hard drive.  If you fail to do the backup data you cannot get your data back.

Before removing the exits hard drive, take you back up to another portable hard drive. If you have any small amount of files then you can save your back up in a Flash drive.

Because after we install a new Hard drive we have format it and have to install new operating system, software we need.

Go to the following link, they will show you how to remove the hard drive and how to install the new one.
