Optical Drive Space SDD Upgrade loose

Hello Guys,

I decided to upgrade\fix computers to help with my Tech Learning journey.

I ripped open the HDD Capacity enclosure for the optical drive because my MacBook Pro wouldn’t close. Does anyone have any experience with putting any spaces or using something to brace the SDD to prevent it from moving in my Labtop.

I’m kind of tight for cash right now but any idea on what products, that you know fit in the 2011 models would be appreciated.

Thanks for your time.

What you want is a dual drive case Unibody Laptop Dual Drive to replace the optical drive unit MacBook Pro 13" Unibody (Mid 2012) Hard Drive Cable

I would also look at just replacing the HDD with a SSD as being a cheaper direction.

You may need to replace the HDD cable if you still have the original drive Your Hard Drive Cable Is A Ticking Time Bomb Here’s the needed cable MacBook Pro 13" Unibody (Mid 2012) Hard Drive Cable And yes! this is the 2012 version which is the better cable MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Late 2011 Hard Drive Cable Replacement
