want to confirm that replacing the logic board will solve my problem

I have a 13” late 2010 MBA. It was giving me some trouble, so I took into a local certified Apple service center (I live in central Mexico). Two things were identified as “fail” during their diagnostic tests. (1) Full System Diagnostic (OS) - exhibiting problems with the SSD (Drive Block Read), and (2) Full System Diagnostic (EFI) - faults during tests of the memory and SSD. They said they don’t have a source for a new logic board for my computer since it is so old.

I am assuming that I could solve these problems myself by replacing the logic board with one purchased through iFixit and replacing the SSD with one from either iFixit or OWC. Am I correct?

Also, I’m not sure which processor I currently have. The only logic board currently available for my computer through iFixit is the 1.86GHz model. Does it matter which processor I choose?

Yes, those should solve your issues.

Are you sure their tests indicated a problem with the memory (RAM) specifically though? If it was only the SSD you wouldn’t need a logic board replacement.

Processor speed affects just that, the speed of the processor. I would say you’re probably fine with the one iFixit sells but it depends on your workload.

Honestly however, I probably wouldn’t go through with the repair, personally. ~$300 for a logic board and SSD is a lot to drop on a 2010 MBA, when you could get a 2012+ MBA for $300-$400 that will work with the latest software updates (Mojave), etc… The 2010 is pretty near its end of life in general.

Thanks, Jonah, for your response! I'm exploring options to keep this old computer going. I don't use it for much anymore. The logic board would be $175US from iFixit, and I could get a small, 64GB SSD for $60US. Cheaper than a replacement computer.

There's actually a lot of options on eBay, etc for a 2012 around $250 it looks like, which is only what, $15 more? But if you're in some other country or that isn't feasible for some other reason, then yes, you should be good to replace those components :) I just generally hate to recommend repairs on the more expensive side like this, on pre-2012 MacBooks as a rule.

Your point is well taken. Like I said, I'm just exploring options. Thanks for your input!
