late 2013 macbook pro hard drive upgrade

Perhaps the 2019 Mac Pro a return to PCIe, but more than likely, 2013 will be the template. It's the bridge to a bygone era where CPUs and storage, and even GPUs were removable. Only the 2019 Mac Pro since it has allowed for the range of user serviceability of the 2013 (although the iMac 5k is a close second). Despite its limited upgradability, the computer is a modular design, and nearly ever significant part can be replaced. Despite the naysayers, the Mac Pro 2013 isn't without its fans (no pun intended), as at the time of its unveiling, it was a powerful, quirky computer in a diminutive form factor. Apple also took steps to extend its repair program, but problems persist. The Mac Pro 2013 has been prone to an abnormal rate of failures due to heat, with a nameless Apple exec quoted as saying, 'think we designed ourselves into a bit of a thermal corner if you will'. After a few positive reactions by publications for its foreign looks, it quickly became snubbed for its lack of upgradability, stability, and Apple's complete and absolute antipathy (verging on enmity) towards it. The 2013 Mac Pro was conceived as the original Mac Pro's successor, eschewing the modularity for a (debatably) stylish and radical redesign. The Mac Pro 2013 has the dubious honor as the longest-produced Macintosh, besting the Macintosh Plus produced from 1986 to 1990 without an upgrade. While most users (and Apple engineers) probably prefer moniker 'cylinder,' the trash can title stuck due to its obvious physical characteristics.

Is there a need or demand for such a guide? I don't know, but here we are, and while the origins are jocular, the rest of this guide is serious.

The 2013 Mac Pro is a tale of hubris for Apple, as it over-promised and under-delivered and is considerably less upgradeable than its predecessor. The Definitive Trash can Mac Pro 2013 upgrade guide started in jest on social media as the guide no one wanted, but there is a surprising depth the upgrades. To mark the first anniversary of my wildly successful blog post (garnering tens of thousands of views), The Definitive Classic Mac Pro (2006-2012) Upgrade Guide, I'm proud to announce a sequel.
