Recently updated the HDD to SSD. Do I need to update to a new cable?

I recently replaced the original hard drive in my MacBook Pro to a Samsung 860 EVO SSD.

When my computer was plugged in overnight the software updated and the speed of the SSD slowed down. I saw online I need to upgrade the cable to get the most of the new SSD.

Which cable do I need to buy please??

Yes! You need a new HD SATA cable.

Here’s the needed part MacBook Pro 13" Unibody (Mid 2012) Hard Drive Cable and yes! This is the 2012 version of the cable which is better designed for SSD’s. Here’s the guide you’ll need to follow MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Late 2011 Hard Drive Cable Replacement.

You do want to place a strip of electricians tape on the uppercase where the cable crosses over as the rough aluminum wears the cable. In addition you need to be careful on the folds! Many people bend the cable across a sharp ruler which will damage it! You want a smooth arc with no sharp bends. I use a ballpoint pen ink tube to shape the radius of the folds.

Once you’ve fixed the hardware you really want to make a backup using TimeMachine and then reformat the drive and re-install the OS again. I strongly recommend you stick with Sierra!

High Sierra & Mojave will create issues with your system! Basically, these newer OS’s replace the HFS+ file system with APFS during the install or upgrade process. What makes sense for the newer PCIe/NVMe blade drives does not fly here with the older SATA drives. You want to stick with HFS+ and you can’t roll it back when you install these newer OS’s.
