Changement SSD MacBook Air 11" (début 2015)

Ce dont vous avez besoin

    Outil utilisé dans cette étape :
    P5 Pentalobe Screwdriver Retina MacBook Pro and Air

    • Éteignez et fermez votre ordinateur. Posez-le sur une surface douce, la partie supérieure vers le bas.

    • Retirez les dix vis suivantes :

    • Deux vis pentalobes 8 mm 5-points

    • Huit vis pentalobes 2.5 mm 5-points

    • Le tournevis spécial nécessaire pour enlever les 5 points vis pentalobes peut être trouvé ici.

    When you say:

    Remove the following ten screws:

    Two 8 mm 5-point Pentalobe screws

    Eight 2.5 mm 5-point Pentalobe screws

    Do the 8mm & 2.5mm dimensions refer to the LENGTH of those screws, or the size of the pentalobe? That is, are there other sizes of pentalobe drivers like there are for hex, phillips and torx? When only one dimension is provided, it is usually the socket/driver size, not the screw length, maybe since the length cannot be seen when the screw is installed.

    Can I suggest that you clarify your instructions so folks are confident they are only in need of _one_ pentalobe driver?

    Nerdily yours,

    The 8mm and 2.5mm are the length of the screws. One pentalobe P5 screwdriver suffices for all the screws (P5 is implicitly the size of the pentalobe screw heads).

    I sourced all the parts from ifixit, plus a magnetic project mat which I found to be very useful for organising the teardown and reassembly.

    Keep the 2.5mm tiny screws away from the MagSafe connector as they will be attracted and sucked in to the magnet.

    A tip an old bench tech taught me that has saved me many times: I put clear “Scotch” tape over the case screws as they became “free”. The tape kept them in place while I lifted the lid off, cleaned it etc.

    Thank you for a really smart tip! I will be using that countless more times!

    I’m confused about internet recovery and installing MacOS. Is all of this done before placing in the new ssd card or after. I don’t have any files that I would like to safe/transfer, is all of this necessary, if I don’t do it before placing new ssd, will I still be able to instal/upgrade macOS afterwards.

    It’s an old Mac and now it won’t start or charge, I know I will have to replace battery and put new battery first and turn on Mac before doing the ssd stuff. Since it won’t effing start.

    I’m really clueless about backing up old ssd, since I don’t need any files, besides MacOS(software) ,and is that related to the ssd?

    AMG - Réponse

    The answer to your question: You need to insert your SSD into the computer before internet recovery. If you start the recovery before inserting SSD, it won’t affect the setup, you won’t damage anything. But your SSD will not be detected (as there isn’t one inserted.)

    Also, a little tip: If you bought a used SSD, go into Disk Utility and format the drive with the highest security level to permanently remove all of the previous files.

    Also a FYI: Internet Recovery will load up Mac OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks, so I would recommend making a recovery drive from a Big Sur (or desired version) through another Mac, and a USB. You can visit this support doc: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372

    Hope this helps! -Dan

    I got a macbook air with a damaged and swollen battery. I could remove all screws, except one 2,5 mm screw. I’m afraid it got damaged while attempting to remove it, I have no grip with the P5 pentalobe screwdriver. How can I proceed?

    Hi Robert!

    Try some techniques found in this stripped screw removal guide. Good luck!

    Hello I have a macbook air they are say they do not have parts for my laptop macbook air 11 inches 2013 mid need to replace battery which one to buy

    vensilver - Réponse

    Hello! This is the part you want—maybe we’re not able to ship it to you if you’re out of the United States. The battery in your MacBook Air should be the same for all 11” between mid-2011 to early-2015.

    The smaller screws went in more easily when I put back all the screws along the hinge edge first.

    • Au cours de cette étape, vous allez débrancher la batterie pour éviter de court-circuiter des composants pendant la réparation.

    • Utilisez l'extrémité plate d'une spatule (spudger) pour faire levier sur les deux côtés courts du connecteur de la batterie afin de le déconnecter de sa prise sur la carte mère.

    • Repliez légèrement la nappe de la batterie pour l'éloigner de la carte mère pour éviter que le connecteur ne se rabatte accidentellement et n'entre en contact avec sa prise.

    When reassembling the connector wire needs to be bent to fit.

    • Ne soulevez pas excessivement l'extrémité du disque SSD.

    • Tirez le disque tout droit hors de son logement et enlevez-le de la carte mère.

    • Assurez-vous que le disque SSD est correctement placé avant de remettre sa vis de fixation.

It is possible to upgrade the 128GB ssd to a larger one for this Macbook Air model?

dgoteixeira - Réponse

Absolutely. Just click the parts link at the top of the page, and choose your size.

I bought the below model SSD by mistake for my Apple 11" Early 2015 model. Could you please suggest whether it will be compatible.

"Samsung 256GB Flash SSD SSUBX/655-1858K w/ Heatsink for Mac Pro 6,1 JPV256R/0A1"

Hi, I am desperately trying to understand how to repair my macbook air 11 inch early 2015. The internal Hd broke. I would like to repair my macbook mounting the SSD suggested by Ifixit but unfortunately the last upgrade of the system was El capitan so, if I understood correctly, I don’t have the right EFI. What can I do? Is there a procedure to install the EFI the SSD owc aura needs? Or should I buy another SSD? Could you suggest me a solution? Thank you in advance for your time

You should be able to reinstall or restore everything via macOS recovery. Your Mac should support that:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904

Just boot up and either reinstall from scratch or follow the instructions to restore from a backup (or the old HD if it still turns on)

Barry K -

These instructions worked very well for me. There were only two issues. First, the battery connector my 13” early 2015 MacBook Air was a simply pull tab; it disconnected easily, coming out of a socket located near the location shown. Second, when I was done, disk utility didn’t see the new SSD. After I opened it up again, disconnected the battery, and reseated the SSD, and reconnected everything, it was fine. I can’t say that the new SSD seats quite as well as the original.

Hi, thanks for great looking guide. I’m planning to replace a SSD in MacBook Air early 2015 previously running Yosemite. Thinking of choosing the OWC Aura Pro X2 SSD 240GB.

Have two questions

(1) is there any need of an adapter for the OWC Aura Pro X2 to fit the proprietary storage drive connector of MacBook Air?

(2) If I prior to SSD replacement boot of an external disk and install OSX Mojave, is this sufficient to update the firmware to then find the SSD upon replacement?

Thanks in advance, looking forward to try this out!

Rasmus Malgerud Björgell - Réponse

Well, that was flippin’ easy. Probably what took the longest was getting all the tiny screws aligned properly when putting the case back on!
