The drive included in the bundle is a Crucial MX300. Here’s a link to the suppliers website, I believe it has the info you need,

You may want to consider upgrading your laptop’s hard drive/IR sensor cable to a newer one from 2012 (it's compatible with your laptop, no worries about that ) that can support solid state drive speeds.

What are the benefits of changing the SATA cable? Thanks
The firs gen of cables didn't handle SATA III data rates well. Apple upgraded the cable. You also need to apply a piece of electricians tape on the uppercase when the cable rests against as the rough aluminum wears the cable and the second reason you want to replace it.
