I use their SSD drives and memory as well. You can browse to their site and use the system configurator to match the right hardware to the drives you want to upgrade. They also show you what tools you’ll need and provide them at a very reasonable cost. Big fan of Crucial and Mikron.

You'll need to take into account the size of your current HD and decide if you want the same size, smaller or bigger. It all depends on your usage. It will likely be a matter of cost for you, but the 512 GB ones would likely do the job. On my machine, I took out the optical drive, installed my 7200 RPM 750 GB drive into that location and installed the SSD into where the HD normally resides. With this configuration, I only needed to purchase a 256 GB SSD as I created a Fusion array between the old HD and new SSD, giving me a 1 TB Fusion Drive Lots of storage and very quick. Later...

I’m going to have to buy the SSD and battery on my own. How do I pick which SSD to purchase? If I can get more years out of this Mac then I’ll be happy. When finances change, then I’ll upgrade.

Since you already have 8 GB RAM, that's a good thing as well. I've put SSD's into quite a number of 2012 MBP's lately and the users have noticed huge improvements. With respect to installing Sierra on that machine, it's kind of your call. It will add some features, but some new features require newer hardware. It certainly shouldn't hurt your machine or slow it down that much with the installation of the SSD and with 8 GB of RAM on board. Later...

Bucciarelli www.linkedin.com/in/SaraiDBucciarelli<http://www.linkedin.com/in/SaraiDBucciarelli> Hi guys: I found an authorized service center that will replace my MBP battery, but I have to order it from the Internet. I’m also thinking about letting them replace my 7200 rpm 500 HD with an SSD. My question is is it worth the hard drive upgrade? Will my MBP work faster? It has 8GB RAM right now with cor i7 processor. Also, is it worth having him install the latest Os, Sierra on a machine this old? I don’t want to sync a lot of money in to this machine, but I really cannot afoard to buy a new one. Battery will cost $99 $25 to put it in. He said it would cost $150 alltogetehr to put in SD. OF course, this doesn’t cost the price of the SSD. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
