17" MacBook Pro Mid 2010, Upgrade NVMe SSD possible?

Hi Guys,

I have my 17” MacBook Pro Mid 2010 (Specs on the image)

Block Image

I have a regular HDD with 500GB, and I’m looking to upgrade the disk to a NVMe of 500GB or 1TB.

I’m not an expert on this, but I want to know if anyone has done this on this specific computer, I’ve been researching on the internet and there many people who has done this on a 2013,2014 2015 but not on a this specific laptop

Can anyone tell if is possible and do i need to get it done?

Thanks

Sorry to tell you, you are limited to what the system has for drive I/O which is only SATA II (3.0 Gb/s)

PCIe/NVMe interface is a newer standard for drives there is no means to install one of these SSD’s

With that said, you do have a SSD option! Replacing your current slow spinning rust drive for a 2.5” SSD! Here’s the guide Remplacement du disque dur d'un MacBook Pro 17" Unibody

Sadly, you can’t use the iFixit kit SSD (Crucial) as it is designed for the newer SATA MacBook Pro’s which have a SATA III (6.0 Gb/s) interface.

You’ll need a drive which is able to run at the slower SATA II (3.0 Gb/s) speed. As an example the Samsung 870 EVO SSD. If you review the spec sheet note the Interface line clearly states “SATA 6 Gb/s Interface, compatible with SATA 3 Gb/s & 1.5 interfaces” Review the SSD you are looking at spec sheet, if it doesn’t state this move on to another drive.
