#Ssd for macbook pro late 2011 install
and so I dont have to delete anythign off of my ssd in my laptop right now? when i install it on the mac it will delete the data and format it into a mac one? This helps so much!!!! I just have one question, what do you mean by "make sure you have extended journaled". Then go back to install prompt and install MacOS on the newly formated drive. Select the SSD and Select Delete partition. You'll see Install MacOS, DONT DO THIS YET Then right after the Familiar Apple Bing hold down the Option Key
Once that is done turn off the computer, swap out the harddrive for the SSD. Run DiskmakerX select the El Captain image, follow prompts. You will sacrifice performance but not endanger your CPU.Update your macbook to the latest OS First, App Store El captain should be there. If you really must have it quiet, treat the cause and lower your CPU speed, thereby reducing the heat, the fans will follow. When you control the fan, you treat the symptom. If the fan can't remove the heat (quickly enough) it will throttle your CPU to generate less heat. Fans remove heat that's generated by the different components.

Issue - you will have a diagnostic code to start working with to solve the problem No issue - you have a good baseline to start working with If there is an problem, this tool will likely tell you what the issue is (if there is one). Hold the D key while booting from a powered off state with the AC adapter connected. Regardless if the problem goes away in the previous step, run Apple Hardware Test (AHT).
If the problem goes away, then you know it's due to an issue that was introduced due to the modification. Return your MacBook Pro to it's original configuration. Any/all of these could be malfunctioning (or detecting) a malfunction to cause the SMC to spin up your fan. There are sensors for ambient air, the heat sink/pipe, the palm rest, the CPU, the GPU, the hard drive, etc. You most likely have a malfunctioning sensor, and it's not necessarily restricted to the CPU. One thing that I like in Macs is that you never hear the fans while you work.
I was getting much better performances (booting Sierra in 18 seconds, instead of 30 seconds when it was in the Superdrive location). So I swapped the location of the HDD and SSD putting the HDD in the caddy. I installed a HDD+SSD setup on this MacBook Pro 15" Late 2011.Īt first I installed the SSD where the Superdrive was with an optical bay HDD caddy, but then I saw in System Informations -> SATA that while the speed link was 6 Gigabit, the negotiated speed was 3 Gigabit.
