[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1756456, member: 204485"] That's a "how long is a piece of string?" question. There is no way to predict how long any hard drive will last before it dies irrevocably. Suffice to say that you (unlike some) have an indicator which suggests that it may be soon. Many people have no warning at all. As for the data cable, it should be fine but you will never have a better opportunity to replace it. Others may have an opinion on that. Anecdotally, my wife replaced her 500Gb HDD in her 2011 MBP with a 500Gb SSD and it has improved performance markedly despite only having 4Gb RAM running macOS Sierra. [/QUOTE]
