![]() MacOS Sierra is compatible with all Macs (MBP, MBA, Mac Pro, Mac Mini and iMacs) 2010 models and later, and MacBooks starting with late 2009 models and later. ![]() The SSHD will be cheaper and offer you some time to save your pennies to get a newer i5 or i7 system (new or used) which I think is the smarter move. Note in both of these drives data sheets list SATA I (1.5 Gb/s) as a supported interface if the spec sheet doesn't list SATA I compatible for the drive you are thinking of going with forget it! As it won't work. The market for upgrading these older systems is a dying market as more people have moved on to newer systems which have SATA III (6.0 Gb/s) interfaces. The newer FireCuda no longer offers support for SATA I or SATA II systems. You'll need to get a copy of TRIM Enabler but you'll need to have the Core 2 Duo model as it requires OS-X 10.7.5 Lion to work.įrankly, I would recommend going with a SSHD hybrid drive instead like a Seagate ST1000LM014 or ST1000LX001 Sadly these drives are getting harder to find as Seagate no longer makes them. ![]() So far Samsung is one of the few that still offers a SATA I compatible SSD Samsung 750 EVO. Upgrading to an SSD gets complicated with these older systems as the OS's don't have TRIM services and as these systems only have a SATA I (1.5 Gb/s) HD interface so you'll be limited on which SSD drive you could even get to work in this older system.
