Follow this IFIXIT guide to take your old drive out and put in the new SSD in, as well as replace the drives SATA cable as well as thins series has a known issue with them: MacBook Pro 13' Unibody Mid 2010 Hard Drive Cable Replacement. 13-inch MacBook Late 2009 & 2010 Hard Drive/SSD Installation Video - Duration. 13-inch MacBook Pro Mid 2010 Data Doubler 2nd Hard Drive/SSD Installation Video - Duration: 7:28.
Installed the SSD, ran OS dvd, partitioned the new ssd, then clicked on continue, got an option to restore OS, selected that and used time machine backup. This tranferred my latest backup to the new ssd, tok about 2 hours.
While booting, I held Option and it recognized the new HD right away. From then on, it booted fine. Quote from Blake: I did this exactly with a 7200 RPM WD Scorpio that I had been using in my MacBook 13' Unibody (before Apple discontinued that). I get a nasty crash on boot, even with the OS X 10.6 Install DVD. I mean BSOD-equivalent crash. The MacBook Pro is brand new. Anybody know why this happens?

Some info here: '1066 MHz PC3-8500 DDR3 SDRAM' '*Originally, both the official and actual maximum RAM was 8 GB. However, as confirmed by site sponsor OWC, if running OS X 10.7.5 or higher, updated with the latest EFI, and equipped with proper specification memory modules, this model can support up to 16 GB of RAM.' Our Mid 2010 already had 'the latest EFI' (i.e. Boot ROM version in System Profiler), so the reference to updating it may not be relevant. The 10 screws that hold that bottom case take a #00 Phillips driver, if yours doesn't fit it's probably because it's cheaply made & not precise enough.
How To Format Ssd For Mac
I was looking at the samsung 840 evo (500 gb), but is there a chance that it will not work? Or will all ssds work? And would you suggest changing the ssd with the cd drive over the ssd with the hdd? And how long did it take you from start to end?

I then tried the unmount tab but it says could not unmount,. I am stuck good and proper.
