Upgrade Your Mid 2010/2012 Mac Pro Hard Drive With A 1TB SSD
Published 8th March 2016 | Article by KingstonMemoryShop
Get more life out of your Mac Pro and maximise your investment by replacing the existing hard drive with a Kingston solid state drive.
Kingston has launched the 1TB SSDNow KC400 SSD Solid State Drive 2.5inch 7mm, which is compatible with mid 2010 and mid 2012 Mac Pros. The large capacity provides you with plenty of room to store vast amounts of data as well as giving you impressive boot-up and response times.
The hard drive replacement can be purchased on its own or part of a DIY bundle kit. We recommend the bundle kit because it allows you to install the SSD and clone any existing data to the new SSD that is on your current hard drive. If you are performing a fresh install, then opt for the stand alone 1TB SSD.
More time to do the things you love
Kingston’s KC400 is 15 times faster than a traditional hard drive. Faster boot-up speeds, application loading times and data transfers gives you more time to listen, stream and play. With an SSD, your Mac Pro’s general performance will be accelerated and you’ll be able to run more applications at once without it slowing down.
Improved peace of mind
SSDs offer increased reliability, reduced risk of failure, and longer warranty periods. Kingston’s KC400 is backed by a five-year limited warranty plus free technical support. What’s more, the KC400 is loaded with a host of Smart features that are designed to protect your data, including recovery from an unexpected power shutdown.
Easy installation
The Kingston 1TB SSD Now KC400 SSD Solid State Drive Bundle Kit 2.5 Inch 7mm includes all the tools you need to upgrade your iMac’s hard drive with an SSD. The kit comes with:
- 2.5 inch KC400 SSD
- 2.5 inch external USB Caddy
- 2.5 inch to 3.5 inch internal bracket/adaptor
- SATA Data cable
- Molex to SATA Power adaptor cable
- 7mm to 9.5mm bracket
If you’re looking to improve system boot up times, page load times and response times when multitasking on your Mac Pro 2010/2012, and capacity or storage is not a priority, then you can get the same effect using a 128GB SSD Drive.
