    Transcend 480GB JetDrive 520 SATAIII 6Gb/s Solid State Drive Upgrade Kit for MacBook Air, Mid 2012 (TS480GJDM520)

    • Excellent instructions and easy process to clone old hard drive to this one and then just swap them out and was up and running with the larger storage in no time!
    • You may not want to buy this product unless you are comfortable following complex instructions associated with software installation and set up
    • Transcend could improve the manual/instruction by providing video showing the process or put more details on the manual.
    • The instructions were clear, except with Yosemite, you have to press Command-R on startup to boot into the recovery partition, then select Disk Utility to clone your existing drive
    • The instructions were missing some key things that extended my installation time by an hour or so, which is the sole reason I knocked off a star
    • Clear instructions, easy to follow.
    • Very good product, easy to install, instructions are quite clear and the SSD is performing great
    • Great packaging, instructions are lacking.
    • I know some other reviews indicate that a video from OWC is more helpful (it may be so), but following instructions (and pictures) in the booklet worked just fine for me
    • The only thing lacking was the instructions, which were not up to the same level as the rest of the components here.
    • Truly ...a great product with great instal instructions
    • The newer OSX uses a different file system, so the instructions are now invalid in this instance
    • So easy to upgrade, the instructions are accurate and helpful, albeit the OSX instructions weren't applicable to El Capitan - to boot into recovery in order to clone my old drive to the new one, I had to hold command+R, where the instructions state to simply hold option
    • But it doesn't give enough instructions on how to clone or move your data onto the new drive
    • I was a little nervous taking apart my lap top but the instructions that came with it was easy to follow.
    • High quality, top notch packaging and instructions.
    • It comes with everything you need and clear instructions.
    • The switch was really easy, thanks to clear instructions and the fact that the company included everything I'd need in the box (e.g. drivers and USB housing to make cloning easier).
    • Simple to install, TRIM functionality (once activated per Transcend's installation instructions - easy) is seamless, and it just works.
    • You may not want to buy this product unless you are comfortable following complex instructions associated with software installation and set up
    • The instructions are written well enough that it shows you how to clone your current SSD and how to change it
    • Easy to install with the tools provided, and super easy and clear instructions on how to clone your current drive and replace it with the new bigger one
    • Packaged professionally, looks good, performs great, comprehensive contents and good instructions
    • The instructions are very clear, except I missed where it said to use GUID
    • The instructions are available on line at YouTube
    • Kit was complete including clear and understandable instructions as well all the necessary tools, cables, connections, and housing
    • The instructions are very clear, except I missed where it said to use GUID
