Hi everyone,
This will be my first time upgrading any type of hard drive. I planned on ordering one from SSD for MacBook Air 2010 or 2011 - OWC Mercury Pro Aura Express Sandforce Driven. I have all my data backed up via Time Machine through my WD MyBook External Hard drive. My main questions are:
- Will I lose my programs (i.e Microsoft Office, etc), if so...
- Would I just have to re-download them?
- Once the new SSD is installed, I'm assuming I just restore from the back-up or use the mirgration?
I appreciate the help and any tips you think I need.
