2011 max pro. 13 inch. Upgraded to 16gb ram. On its 3rd HD NOW. Not sure what OS. Possibly Sierra.

This mac is a beast. And I fully accept this now 4/5 year old HD is on its way out. Thankfully I have all my main files backed up to a solid state external.
The mac has been getting so slow that I’m kind of relieved it’s popped.

I want to get 1tb SD in this beast.

Right now I had to hold in power and shut down and I powered up and it’s just remained on that grey screen with grey apple logo and load bar below. Los bar is fully loaded but it won’t go past that.
I guess would be nice to go in now and just make sure I have all new files. Maybe take note of some apps I have etc? Can I do anything?

Also as for nee SD. What do I need? Are they around £100/$115 for 1tb? I deffo don’t need more than that.

Thanks.
