What is the best 7200rpm drive to get for Macbook 3.1 (2007 White)?
From what I saw online, WD Scorpio Black 500GB seems good. Got many positive reviews about it, also got negative remarks (OS stuttering/lag which can never be fix) But Seagate seems worse... Anyone got personal experience upgrading MB3.1 2007 White HDD? Advice needed...  |

QUOTE(feins @ Jan 29 2013, 08:42 AM) So far. Before this I use seagate momentous 500gb before so far till now even after I sold it to my fren n still using without any complain. Its the MacBook white 2007. Seems like quite alot of mixed reviews, headache already... thanks for sharing  May I ask, Did you just pull out the old drive, plug in the new seagate drive and reinstall OS X from DVD / Bootable USB? Or did you copy a disk image of your old drive (image backup/restore)? Or, plug out old drive, install OSX to the new HDD thru a USB 2.5'' HDD adapted? Then only plug in the new HDD into the bay? Any do/don't advice?  This post has been edited by andrew9292: Jan 29 2013, 01:43 PM |
