MacBook Air 11" Mitte 2011 SSD austauschen

Was du brauchst

  1. MacBook Air 11" Mitte 2011 SSD austauschen, Gehäuseunterteil: Schritt 1, Bild 1 von 1
    In diesem Schritt verwendetes Werkzeug:
    P5 Pentalobe Screwdriver Retina MacBook Pro and Air
    $5.99
    Kaufen
    • Bevor du weitermachst, schließe das Display und lege es umgekehrt auf eine weiche Oberfläche.

    • Entferne die folgenden zehn Schrauben:

    • Zwei 8 mm 5-Point Pentalobe Schrauben

    • Acht 2,5 mm 5-Point Pentalobe Schrauben

    • Der Spezialschraubenzieher, der zum Entfernen der zehn 5-Punkt Pentalobe Schrauben benötigt wird, ist hier erhältlich.

    I recommend that one of the tools you obtain is a jeweler's loupe that mounts on your glasses. It makes things easier.

    This is not correct. You need the pentalobe tool at this point.

    • Löse das Gehäuseunterteil vom Air, indem du mit den Fingerspitzen zwischen Display und Gehäuse gehst und es nach oben ziehst.

    • Entferne das Gehäuseunterteil und lege es beiseite.

    • In diesem Schritt wirst du den Akku abtrennen, um Kurzschlüsse an irgendwelchen Komponenten während der Reparatur zu vermeiden.

    • Hebele mit dem flachen Ende eines Spudgers die beiden kurzen Seiten des Akkusteckers nach oben, um ihn von seinem Anschluss auf dem Logic Board zu lösen.

    • Biege das Akkukabel etwas weg vom Logic Board, so dass sich der Stecker nicht wieder versehentlich mit dem Anschluss verbinden kann.

    My macbook air's configuration (Mid-2011 core i5) has a different battery connector. It slides into a receptacle on the logic board. If your battery connector does not look like the one pictured, use the pointy end of a spudger to depress the small indentation in the middle of the battery connector cable terminal, and pull aft to release the clasp mechanism.

    Ethan Cross - Antwort

    Maybe your battery connector doesn't match the picture because these instructions are for the mid-2012 model and yours is mid-2011.

  4. MacBook Air 11" Mitte 2011 SSD austauschen, Solid-State Drive  (SSD Laufwerk): Schritt 4, Bild 1 von 1
    • Entferne die einzelne 2,9 mm Torx T5 Schraube, welche die SSD am Logic Board befestigt.

  5. MacBook Air 11" Mitte 2011 SSD austauschen: Schritt 5, Bild 1 von 2 MacBook Air 11" Mitte 2011 SSD austauschen: Schritt 5, Bild 2 von 2
    • Hebe die SSD vorsichtig an dem freien Ende mit dem Spudger hoch, und zwar gerade nur soweit, dass du sie mit der anderen Hand fassen kannst.

    • Hebe das Ende der SSD nicht zu weit hoch.

    • Ziehe das Laufwerk aus seinem Anschluss und entferne es vom Logic Board.

    • Achte beim Zusammenbau darauf, dass die SSD richtig sitzt, bevor du die Halteschraube wieder eindrehst.

    When you've completed all these steps to replace your SSD, don't despair if the MacBook Air shows a flashing folder with a question mark when you first power up the MacBook Air.

    - Power off the machine, then keep the option key (= Alt key) pressed down, power on the machine again, and keep the option key pressed down until a prompt appears.

    - If you've set a firmware password, then type it in at the prompt

    - You should now be prompted for a hard drive to boot from. Select "EFI Boot"

    - The MacBook Air should now boot to a window showing "OS X Utilities"

    - Click on the  at the top left, then select "Startup Disk..."

    - Select your SDD/Hard drive, and restart.

    When replacing the SSD, be careful about the connector orientation. Replacement boards look almost the same if they are upside-down. Note that the connector is not reversible - there is a notch that will only line up if the board is right-side up. If it doesn't seem to line up, flip the board over.

    can i ask some links for some ssd’s that are compatible with that macbook model ?

    giannismistil - Antwort

    Hi I completed steps above, but the MacBook Air 2012 doesn’t seem to read the drive, on reboot I get a flashing folder, and upon clicking Control R on reboot it goes to internet recovery mode and then can’t find the drive on disk utility. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, Devin

    Devin Patrick Hughes - Antwort

    if you’re using an M2 adaptor, be mindful to check the compatibility with the other end. In my specific case my adaptor was only compatible with M2 Sata and not with M2 NVMe.

    Andres Urena - Antwort

    This was a confusing upgrade. Sintech M.2 NGFF SSD fo 2010-2011 MacBook Air was used, yet it’s got a graphic in the sales content that claims it works with ‘M’ key only (NVMe, AHCI), so NOT SATA. Yet in the answered questions on Amazon the sales tech claims you MUST use SATA drive. I bought 2 NVMe SSD’s and found that the first USB adapter board was unstable with both. So, bought another adapter board that supported SATA and NVMe (RIITOP M.2 SSD to USB 3.1 adapter that claimed to be compatible with ‘M’ and ‘B+M’ SATA SSD’s) and a SATA SSD (Silicon Power A55 M.2 SATA III). The NVMe drives couldn’t be seen by the MacBook Air, but the SATA drive worked (Restore didn’t work, but SuperDuper! does fine). Physical install is as shown.

Note: if you're installing a blank SSD, you'll want to format it with Disk Utilities) before the OS X installer will recognize it.

Could not have been any easier, with this guide.

Thank you very much!

is it possible to replace an 128 GB Solid State Drive with an 240 GB? (MacBook Air, 11", Mid 2011)

zimmermatthias - Antwort

Does anyone know if the Samsung 960 pro 512gb m.2 drive is compatible with this machine?

Mark - Antwort

No, is not, I just bought a 1TB Samsung 960 EVO m.2 and had to return it, for not being compatible. (is smaller and the pin-out is not the same)

Super clear and helpful, thank you.

Is there a way to retrieve data from an old Samsung SDD taken from my Mac Air 2011? The Mac was totally dead after water damage but I want the photos.

alan s. - Antwort

Where can I get an adapter? And what’s the right signature ?

Roman Loeser - Antwort

What adapter do I need to be able to put a 970 EVO plus, or any NVMe ssd into this machine??

Brick Wall - Antwort

Thank you very much - worked like a charm; now….on to the battery…

Kurt Navratil - Antwort

Parfait mon macbook air vient de passer de 60 Go à 500 Go !!! Et en plus c’est facile ! Merci pour ce tuto très bien réalisé qui permet de recycler nos vieux macbook qui fonctionnent toujours très bien !

Laurent Durieux - Antwort

There are adapters available, so you can upgrade your MacBook Air with 'standard' SSDs - as long as they match the adapters specifications. In my case I found an adapter which supports SATA SSDs but not PCMe.
With this in mind you won't go wrong. Both my MacBook Pro 13 late 2012 and my MacBook Air 11 work fine. Especially the Air (which got only 2 GB RAM) benefits most, after installing a Linux with SWAP. Due to the speed of the new SSD it runs smoothly.
