Sostituzione SSD MacBook Air 11" Early 2014
Introduzione
Vai al passo 1Usa questa guida per aggiornare o sostituire la memoria a stato solido in un MacBook Air 11” di inizio 2014. Questo MacBook Air usa un connettore proprietario per l'unità di archiviazione e quindi non è compatibile con i drive M.2 comuni senza l'uso di un adattatore.
Prima di eseguire questa riparazione, se possibile, fai un back up del tuo SSD attuale. Poi, guarda come recuperare da internet o creare un disco esterno avviabile per essere pronto a installare macOS sul tuo nuovo disco e spostare i dati sul nuovo SSD.
Infine, raccomandiamo di installare macOS 10.13 High Sierra (o una versione successiva) prima di sostituire l'SSD originale dal tuo MacBook Air. La maggior parte dei nuovi SSD richiedono aggiornamenti dei driver di sistema che non si trovano in versioni precedenti ad High Sierra di macOS.

My replacement battery (bought from Fixje in the Netherlands) had a rather thick rubber plate glued onto the top of the battery connector, which made it difficult to reattach the back cover. Specifically, the clip in the middle of the back cover could not reach into the slot.
The rubber plate could be removed which made the back close (and also made it look like the battery connector of the original battery), but the middle clip would nevertheless not attach with a clicking sound. Still, the back covers attached tightly and does not flex when pressed in the middle.
It's possible that that specific replacement battery is a hair of a millimetre thicker than the original battery which prevents the middle clip to reach into the slot fully.

can I use my HD SSD from MB Air 2011MID / 13" to this one, EARLY2014 / 11" ??
Agree with Daniel on OS installation and transfer of files from old disk. This last step needs to be in this guide for sure, otherwise it is an incomplete fix.

The repair itself went smoothly; the advice to make sure the replacement SSD was properly seated was appropriate.
However, the essential step of transferring the OS from backup was challenging. The replacement SSD (OWC Aura Pro) requires that the computer run High Sierra (macOS 10.13) because of needed firmware, but my computer was running Sierra (macOS 10.12). I installed 10.13 on the SSD that I was about to replace, but this was not sufficient. The replacement SSD was not recognized. The backup from which the system is to be restored also has to run 10.13. I resolved this impasse by booting the computer in target disk mode with a new machine that is running 10.13 and cloning the system from that machine.
The instructions that came with the OWC Aura Pro SSD say, “MacOS 10.13 High Sierra … must be installed on the host computer before installing the OWC Aura Pro SSD.“ This information, along with the fact that the backup must also run High Sierra, should be on this website.
excellent set of instructions. thank u
When you say:
Remove the following ten screws:
Two 8 mm 5-point Pentalobe screws
Eight 2.5 mm 5-point Pentalobe screws
Do the 8mm & 2.5mm dimensions refer to the LENGTH of those screws, or the size of the pentalobe? That is, are there other sizes of pentalobe drivers like there are for hex, phillips and torx? When only one dimension is provided, it is usually the socket/driver size, not the screw length, maybe since the length cannot be seen when the screw is installed.
Can I suggest that you clarify your instructions so folks are confident they are only in need of _one_ pentalobe driver?
Nerdily yours,

The 8mm and 2.5mm are the length of the screws. One pentalobe P5 screwdriver suffices for all the screws (P5 is implicitly the size of the pentalobe screw heads).

I sourced all the parts from ifixit, plus a magnetic project mat which I found to be very useful for organising the teardown and reassembly.

Keep the 2.5mm tiny screws away from the MagSafe connector as they will be attracted and sucked in to the magnet.

A tip an old bench tech taught me that has saved me many times: I put clear “Scotch” tape over the case screws as they became “free”. The tape kept them in place while I lifted the lid off, cleaned it etc.

Thank you for a really smart tip! I will be using that countless more times!

I’m confused about internet recovery and installing MacOS. Is all of this done before placing in the new ssd card or after. I don’t have any files that I would like to safe/transfer, is all of this necessary, if I don’t do it before placing new ssd, will I still be able to instal/upgrade macOS afterwards.
It’s an old Mac and now it won’t start or charge, I know I will have to replace battery and put new battery first and turn on Mac before doing the ssd stuff. Since it won’t effing start.
I’m really clueless about backing up old ssd, since I don’t need any files, besides MacOS(software) ,and is that related to the ssd?

The answer to your question: You need to insert your SSD into the computer before internet recovery. If you start the recovery before inserting SSD, it won’t affect the setup, you won’t damage anything. But your SSD will not be detected (as there isn’t one inserted.)
Also, a little tip: If you bought a used SSD, go into Disk Utility and format the drive with the highest security level to permanently remove all of the previous files.
Also a FYI: Internet Recovery will load up Mac OS X 10.9.5 Mavericks, so I would recommend making a recovery drive from a Big Sur (or desired version) through another Mac, and a USB. You can visit this support doc: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201372
Hope this helps! -Dan

I got a macbook air with a damaged and swollen battery. I could remove all screws, except one 2,5 mm screw. I’m afraid it got damaged while attempting to remove it, I have no grip with the P5 pentalobe screwdriver. How can I proceed?

Hi Robert!
Try some techniques found in this stripped screw removal guide. Good luck!

Hello I have a macbook air they are say they do not have parts for my laptop macbook air 11 inches 2013 mid need to replace battery which one to buy
vensilver - Replica
Hello! This is the part you want—maybe we’re not able to ship it to you if you’re out of the United States. The battery in your MacBook Air should be the same for all 11” between mid-2011 to early-2015.

The smaller screws went in more easily when I put back all the screws along the hinge edge first.
