I talked to some pretty incompetent people at NewEgg and BHP about what is a compatible SSD for my A1370 model and that is why I am asking here because you get better feedback than from the people that sell the product! 
(I will buy 2 of these 1TB chips, one for internal installation, the other to put into an external housing case to run backups)
I’m not sure of the different pin count or the differences in the types of SSD’s but I’m looking for a 1TB size for it. I heard that there can be a chip or circuit board thickness size problem in the higher storage chips leading to a problem with installation.
I’ve also heard that to use this type of SSD in an external drive it has to run a 1 amp minimum voltage requirement otherwise it won’t provide enough current to the ssd and can't identify or work well enough? (I would be using a USB 3.0 if its backwards compatible?)
And lastly, why would an external drive casing adapter card for this have a minimum OSX 10.7 requirement when adverts say these same external drives are compatible with a 2010 Air model which comes with 10.6?
Can anyone confirm these questions and make a suggestion on which are the Top 3 best SSD’s for this A1370 model while omitting an OWC suggestion as they are very overpriced compared to their competitors? Thank you.
