Stay with ones made for Mac like the OWC or Transcend....

Chosen Solution I have an acer laptop. Whenever I try to close it , the laptop lid doesn’t completely shut. I’m guessing this has something to do with the hinges.

I really need this to last for some months....

Chosen Solution Hello, I had battery problems with the original battery on the iPhone 6s (battery would die randomly) and I ordered a replacement. After replacing, I drained the battery to 0 and charged it to 100% and it still dies randomly. The only difference is that it dies consistently around 20-30% and when I turn it back on, it has the same percentage as it did when it died, whereas before with the old battery, it would fluctuate (for example the phone would die at 15 but turn on at 30)....

They did not bother to open it. They ran a test tried to reinstall the OS and then told me that they did not know if a repair was possible so they gave me two rather strange options: 1....

Chosen Solution After 7 years of service my A1342 stopped working. The machine powered on with fan spin and plays the apple chime. I slowly ruled out all other problems, like backlight and inverter and found that the GPU had let go when an external monitor gave no output. I disassembled the laptop and held a heat gun over the GPU at about 150 degrees c for 5 minutes. This appeared to work as the surface of the GPU has some scoring on it that disappeared after the procedure....
