Mid 2014 MacBook Pro 13 inch Retina Display SSD Upgrade

Chuck Reuter -

My Problem

I had a 512 GB SSD and was running out of space. I called Apple to ask if they could upgrade it and was told it wasn't an option. I then called a local Apple authorized repair shop and spoke with someone who said they do it all of the time, it wasn't a problem, but they wanted me to bring it in to look at it. When I went into the shop, everyone seemed confused and didn't know what I was talking about. They said they didn't know how to order the parts, and to come back when the woman I spoke to was in. I instantly lost faith in them, and decided to do it myself after looking at the iFixit website.

My Fix

It was extremely easy and exactly as the website stated. I was done in less then 10 minutes with no problems. I restored from a Time Machine backup which was the longest aspect of the process.

My Advice

Sorry, no advice. Just follow the site's instructions.
