    • Unscrew ten screws using a Phillips #000 screwdriver. Push screwdriver into screw and then turn, keeping firm pressure on the screwdriver, to avoid stripping the screw.

    • After unscrewing a screw, place it next to the hole it was taken from. When it is time to replace the screws this will avoid any confusion, as there are several longer screws.

    The two closest to the rear hinge are the short screws

Conclusão

To install a new hard drive into this computer, follow these instructions in reverse order. Begin by unscrewing the mounting screws from the old hard drive and screwing them into the new hard drive.

If you plan to use the current hard drive as an external hard drive, leave the mounting screws in place. Purchase a hard drive enclosure to keep the hard drive in.

How do I remove those screws? They seem to be permanent placed.

Can I remove the old harddrive as instructed above and just have macpro use and external harddrive?

Ron - Responder

The computer should work fine without a hard drive installed, but you will want a high speed external hard drive that connects over something faster than USB2 in order to have a usable experience. Depending on the model of computer you have, the drive could be connected over Firewire, Thunderbolt, USB3, or USB-C.

Once I have my old HD out, how do you transfer the existing OS/files from it to the new SSD drive?

Suggest you install fresh copy of MacOS on another drive, and then run the ‘Migration Assistant’ (found in Applications/Utilities) The Assistant will ask for the source drive and whether you just want documents, or everything, applications, etc.

Darf man die Schrauben an der Seite der Festplatte entfernen? Ich möchte die Festplatte gerne auslesen, weil da meine ganzen Daten drauf sind. Alle Festplattengehäuse passen leider nicht aufgrund der seitlichen Schrauben. Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe!
