The MacBook Pro Hard Drive Replacement Service includes the assessment of your MacBook Pro's current Solid State Drive (SSD) or Hard Drive (HDD), consultation with our technicians to determine the appropriate replacement drive, and the installation and configuration of the new hard drive.

Every time we do a hard drive replacement either because you want to upgrade the space or because of a hardware failure, we do the following steps:

Step #1: Diagnostic & Quote

The service begins with a diagnostic assessment to determine if you really need a hard drive replacement. The technician will examine the MacBook Pro's hardware and software to identify any issues that could have caused the problems you are experiencing with your MacBook Pro. Once the cause has been determined, the technician will provide the diagnostic to either confirm we need a hard drive replacement or if something else needs to be fixed instead. Diagnostics are very important to us because this is how everything starts for us.

We will provide a Quote for the cost of the MacBook Pro Hard Drive Repair Service Replacement or something else. The diagnostic fee will be applied to the final cost of the repair. When you buy this service, we only charge for the diagnostic fee which is used to determine how we will fix your unit and if parts are necessary for the work to be done.

Step #2: Repair or Replacement of the Hard Drive

The hard drive replacement process or the service you really need will begin once you approve the quote and diagnostic. We provide the parts for our repairs, but you can also decide to bring your own parts. If you provide your own parts, we will not be able to provide a warranty for your part or service. If the part is damaged or not working once we install it, there will be additional cost for the extra labor.

Step #3: Quality Assurance & Delivery

Quality Assurance is completed to make sure your unit is working as it should and your MacBook Pro is running like before your incident. You can pick up your unit once the QA has passed. We have Delivery options as well if you need them. Contact our team if you have any questions or need special delivery or shipping.
