## Description

Buy

Review: Works great and easy to install - My laptop suddenly wouldn't boot up (however managed to run a live linux distro off of a usb drive which showed the hard drive nowhere to be seen). Having tested the hard drive in an external enclosure which was working, I came to the conclusion the SATA cable in my macbook pro 8,1 finally gave up the ghost. Having watched an instructional video on youtube, i installed this cable in under 5 minutes and back to using my Mac. As the bracket with the IR sensor is included with this cable, there is no faffing about with fiddly ribbon cables. The screwdrivers that are included are also of good quality
Review: Trusted product. It works really well in my 2012 macbook. - Why did you choose this product over others?: lots of good reviews i red about the supplier. And it works really well in my computer.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect fix for MacBook that will boot from HDD but doesn't recognise SSD
*by M***W on 22 April 2019*

I bought a secondhand MacBook Pro 2012 13" to replace my recently dead 2011. It was good deal but needed an SSD and a RAM upgrade to bring it up to speed. RAM installed I set about trying to install a new SSD. The SSD would format fine in an external caddy but every time installed it into my new MacBook and I tried to install Mac OS via a bootable USB stick, the MacBook would either not recognise the SSD or if I did manage to get it to be recognised , the install either failed or the one time I did get it to install, it wouldn't start and instead gave 'flashing folder' (is not found) errors. The weird thing was that every time I put the original mechanical HDD back in, the MacBook would start fine. After much confusion, frustration and googling, I fould that a lot of other people had similar problems with 2012 MacBooks. Seems the SATA cable that connects the drive to the logic board can fail over time or even if it works with a HDD, is unable to deal with the increased throughput from a faster SSD. So with nothing to loose, I bought this kit. After a 10 minute install, I was up and running, SSD recognised and was installing Mac OS. Install successful and new MacBook living up to its fully potential. Man it's amazing how slow a mechanical drive is once you're used to SSD!! So glad to get this sorted. Great life saving, reasonably priced bit of kit!
