Apple Macbook Pro Hard Drive Space

I ordered an external hard drive for my new Apple MacBook Pro to store my photos on when traveling. This HD has rugged in it's name and certainly stands up to the name. I have only set it up and not used it yet, but if it performs as well as my other four LaCie external hard drives, it will be an investment well worth the money I paid for it.

This cable is used with the external hard drive that backs up my MacBook Pro.

I ordered Apple 14 MacBook Pro (M3 Pro, Space Black) from B&H to replace my 2019 Mac book pro mainly because my 2019 mac book pro fan will kick in and run crazily, it became so loud and impact others around me when they notice the jet sound is coming from my old 2019 mac book pro. B&H online order store is easy to navigate, and I got the new Apple 14 MacBook Pro (M3 Pro, Space Black) shipped to me on time as expected. I have been using my new Apple 14 MacBook Pro (M3 Pro, Space Black) for about almost 2 weeks and this new Apple 14 MacBook Pro (M3 Pro, Space Black) did not make a single noise yet, and the fan never kicks in. Thanks for B&H's great service and great product from Apple.

I used this to transfer data from my old laptop Hard drive to my new one for my Macbook Pro early 2011. The adapter made data transfer so easy and took the guessing game out and worry out. I had no data loss and you could not even tell once the transfer was complete that you even switched hard drives. It's just like there was a hard drive in there all this time. The only issue I had was since my laptop runs on usb 2.0 the transfer was slower but if I had a usb 3.0 connection I'm sure the speed would have been quicker.

The new Apple 16 MacBook Pro (M3 Max, Space Black) is the fastest MacBook Pro yet with the M3 Max setup. I went with 64 GB Memory and 2 TB Storage. The new Space Black is very cool as well. This new MacBook replaces my 1-1/2 year old M2 Max with same memory and storage. I would have to run benchmarks to tell the difference. The M2 Max was also blazing fast.

I use this to back up the hard drive on my 2019 MacBook Pro and it just works... Perfect in both size and capacity....

This is a typical Apple dongle which does what it’s supposed to, namely connect my Apple optical drive to my new MacBook Pro. As is everything made by Apple, cheaper adapters can be had, more so now that USB C is becoming increasingly common in non-Apple brand equipment.

I'm using this with my new Apple MacBook Pro Retina. The USB 3.0 is blazing fast. Copying files to and from the Mac's built-in SSD is very quick. The drive is quiet and discreet. I like this drive so far.

I'm using this inside of my mid 2015 MacBook Pro with an NVMe to Apple SSD adapter, and it's working very well. It's very fast, definitely faster than the stock Apple SSD, and with its large capacity and high endurance rating, I expect it to last quite a long time. This is a double sided M2 drive, so the larger version of the NVMe to Apple SSD drive adapter (with its larger PCB) does not fit this drive properly, but the smaller adapter (which is basically just a short connector) fits a MacBook Pro really well. For normal uses outside of a MacBook, this is a standard size double sided M2 drive, so these odd details are probably of no consequence to anyone else, but I thought I'd mention it anyway. I've been very happy with the FireCuda 520 drives in the past, and the 530 is just as nice, and even faster. I can't wait until the 4TB versions become more available and more affordable. Totally happy with this drive!

I purchased this to make an external boot drive for my 2015 MacBook Pro. This device is probably the fastest way to add external storage to my machine since the Thunderbolt 2 ports are far faster than the USB3 ports. Since this Sabrent Thunderbolt 3 enclosure is self-powered, you can use the Apple Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter in reverse, making full use of the MacBook's Thunderbolt 2 port and getting super fast transfer speeds, making it suitable for use as a boot drive. I don't have any benchmark utilities, but I copied a large VMware image from the internal Apple SSD to an external 2TB FireCuda 530 and saw an Activity Monitor peak write speed of 1.6GB/sec, which is super fast. The case gets a little warm, but that means that it is effectively sinking heat from the M2 drive. I used this to successfully build and test a system upgrade to Mojave, and will continue to use this to occasionally run modern OS versions that I don't want to permanently upgrade to due to software compatibility issues with old apps I still need to run. Right now, it's Velcro'ed to the laptop lid and holds a 1TB drive waiting to test Catalina, so I can see which apps break before deciding if I want to take the plunge. All in all, it's perfect as an external drive for my older MacBook Pro, it's well priced, and extremely well constructed. I'll continue to use it for the rest of the life of this machine, and it'll still be useful if I upgrade to a more modern machine later.
