MacBook Pro :: Have 500GB Hard Drive - What New Drive Should I Get To Increse Capacity

I want something that is cool, fast, and quiet....and something that won't break in 8 months (although it seems there's at least 2 reviews for each product with someone saying that the hard drive broke within a year). I have read hundreds of reviews of each product -- they all seem like great products, but I am having trouble deciding

Aug 14, 2009I have a Macbook PRO 17" with a 160GB hard drive. When I click on the "Macintosh" icon on my desktop and "get info" it says that my capacity is 148.73GB and that I've used 134.28GB only leaving me 14.45GB of availability. For the life of me I can't figure out how the 134GB is calculated. If I click on my username and "get info" the folder size is 103GB. So where is the other 30GB used up at?

View 7 Replies View RelatedMacBook Pro :: Hard Drive Replacement (Supported Maximum Capacity)
May 30, 2010I bought my Macbook Pro in February or March of 2006 and it's still running strong. The hard drive, however, is full and I'd like to get a new, larger, faster one. I'm aware that I need a SATA drive and that it's form factor should be 2.5". I'm also aware that the max transfer rate for my drive is 1.5 Gb/s, can I use one that is 3.0 Gb/s? I think the current drive is 4200 or 5400 RPM, can I use one that is 7200RPM (this computer is mostly used while on AC power)? What about maximum capacity? Are there any limitations due to BIOS or the motherboard? Here is the drive I'm looking at, please let me know if this will work or if you have a similar, better solution.
Here are some of the specs from my MBP:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro1,1
Processor Name: Intel Core Duo
Processor Speed: 2 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 2 MB
Memory: 2 GB

I'm looking for at least a couple of different peoples' opinions, or if you have a link that points to replacement HD requirements that would also be very helpful.

MacBook Pro :: OS X Mavericks (10.9.4) Running Out Of Storage - Almost Full To Capacity
Aug 31, 2014I had to delete a Yosemite partition I created on my mid 2012 macbook pro because the 16gig available filled up fast.
I check my HD and it was almost full to capacity, it shows I had 2.2 TB of photos and 1.5 TB of audio.
I don't know if this photos and music kept adding each time I sync my iphone or each time i log on to Facebook.
Anyway I would like to FREE UP THE SPACE but how, and would I need to have 3plus TB of external DH to do this, or what??????

Mac Pro :: 1st Gen Mac Pro - Hard Drive Capacity?
Aug 5, 2010I've just bought a 1st gen Mac Pro (1,1 A1186) and fully tested it - everything OK. I then proceeded to put in 3 new SATA drives into the empty bays - 2 x 1TB and 1 x 2TB - making 4.25TB in total.
I'm now getting various sorts of weird behaviour - slow booting & shutting down, certain volumes disappearing and reappearing in the finder, and even full-blast fans and flashing power light. The 2TB drive is partitioned into 3 volumes, and this is the one that seems to be giving all the problems.
I now understand that Apple stated a 2TB total limit on these machines on launch. Is there any way around this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedMac Pro :: Getting Close To Hard Drive Capacity
Sep 11, 2009I work on a Mac Pro, and have recently been getting close to the Hard Drives capacity, so after backing up files, I freed up around 5Gb of space, only to notice this decrease in size as the day goes along. I currently have 2.96Gb free. I've not downloaded any files or applications that would use up this amount of space. We store all our work on a central server, which is also close to capacity, having just 1Gb left from the 370Gb available. Just wondered what might be using up the hard drive space I have available, whether it's anything to do with the server we're connected to, and if there's any way of recovering the used space?

Apr 10, 2012It seems that the writing is on the wall for my macbook pro internal harddrive.... Currently limping along but I need to start in safe mode and occaisonally internet boot and run diskutil, fsck etc etc etc.... I think it's safe to say it's going to die soon!So, looking to buy a replacement internal hard drive for a 2011 15" macbook pro: currently I have the stock 750gb 5000rpm drive.Looking for recommendations: of course a 750gb solid state drive would be ideal but of course not realistic!

Mac Pro :: Maximum MP(2006) Hard Drive Capacity?
Nov 29, 2010So, I have a 2006 model MacPro. Currently, I have (3) 500GB hard drives and (1) 750GB hard drive.
I would like to possible add a 2TB or at least 1.5TB internal hard drive to it (I have so much clutter with my external drives already)
I called Apple and they said that model only went to 750GB....
Is there really a limit? It's a SATA drive so I figure it would keep going? has anyone had any luck with larger drives??!

Hardware :: Maximum EMac Hard Drive Capacity
Apr 5, 2008G4 eMac 1.25, OS 10.4.11 What maximum capacity of internal hard drive can I put inside my eMac? 250 Gb drives (in NZ) are selling for under 40c/Gb, and I definitely need to increase the hard drive size in the eMac.
The present installed HD in the eMac is a Seagate Barracuda ST340015A, manuf. 2003

Model:ST340015A

Its spindle speed is 5800 rpm, whereas most modern drives are 7200 (or faster). Will that affect any proposed hard drive change?

CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.1)
CPU Speed: 1.25 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Hard Drive Capacity Displays Incorrectly?
Jun 7, 2012I have been using Parallels Desktop for a while now and I was trying to free up some space on my hard drive. I deleted the parallels.log file which was approx. 45 GB in size. Upon emptying my trash, it was still in use by a service. So I forced it to delete by choosing secure erase trash. It took too long so I was going to stop the service and remove it without securely erasing it. However when I cancelled the process, it took even longer. I had 45 GB free of a 500 Gb hard drive before I started and I was wanting to free enough for a Windows Bootcamp with a 60 GB HDD for development purposes. After it finished, the finder was stating that I had 37.5 GB free. Upon investigation and running the daily weekly and monthly scripts as well as Onyx to empty the trash again. I was still showing the same amount. As I removed other items I no longer needed the free space increased. I ran disk utility to verify permissions and the disk, but upon running a gui program to find large files, it only stated that my drive was ~465 GB, which since it is usually 499.97 GB this is obviously where my problem is. How can I get my Mac to rediscover that lost hard drive space?

Dec 11, 2014How do I contact Apple software technicians to inform them of a bug/defect in their Yosemite software? When I attempt to find
out how much of my hard disc drive has been used, that is the capacity state - then I receive an incorrect graphic display. I only have used a small amount of the capacity and I certainly do not have that much in the way of programs. The graphic
display does not match the text. The test is correct. I certainly do not have 369 GB in programs!
