Hello everyone,

Thanks in advance for your expertise :)

Im going to install an SSD into my friend's 2010 MacBook Pro 17"/ OS X Yosemite 10.10.5/ Mid 2010/ 2.53 GHz Intel Core i5.

He wants at least 500gig but prefers 1 TB.

Can you tell me what you would recommend? Im not sure if this machine would be able to take advantage of an SSD at 6gbs/s or if I should just go with the 3gbs/s
or maybe something else (?)

My friend is an accountant and does not do any gaming or photo/video editing to speak of.

Thanks so much for your help as always!

best,

rick
