If you don't want to fit this drive yourself, we can fit it for you. Simply add the relevant fitting service to your cart. We also offer an optional drive cloning service, where if we are installing a drive for you we can duplicate the contents of your old drive onto the new one. If you want instructions on how to do this yourself, see our drive cloning guide. For more details on our fitting services, please see our installation service page.

If you are fitting this drive yourself you may need some tools. Apple laptops generally use flathead or Phillips type screws to secure the external casing - we sell a standard screwdriver set for this purpose. Internally most Apple laptops use Torx screws - see our Torx screwdriver set.

Note: All our drives are supplied unformated. To use this drive with your Mac you will first need to format it with the utility provided as part of your operating system. For more information, please see our Mac Drive Setup Guide.
