It is but you won't get the full performance out of the drive. A Mid 2010 MBP has a SATA 1 interface and will max out at 150 MBps. The MX100 supports SATA 3 which is much faster. Even though it isn't the fastest SSD out there (still great and a fabulous price for the size) it will never show the performance it is capable of on that model MBP. That's true of any SSD though and the current price makes this a great upgrade. Note that OS X does not enable TRIM support on non Apple SSDs and you will need to download TrimEnabler or something similar to enable TRIM support and prevent degradation of performance.

M.S. Carr incorrectly states that the mid 2010 MacBook Pro has SATA 1. It is actually SATA 2 (3 Gb/s)

According to the YouTube videos I watched(and you should, too), yes. Google search "MacBook Pro mid 2012 replace hard drive" to get several videos to show the way. Replacing a spinning drive with this SSD should bring new life to your MacBook.

Yes. It will work fine. These have standard SATA (power and data) plugs. From Apple info: *Type: SATA 3 Gbps (The WD is a SATA 6gbps, but will be backward compatible) *Width: 3.9 inches (102 mm) *Depth: 5.7 inches (147 mm) *Height: 1.0 inch By default, a single 3 Gb/s Serial ATA -- sometimes referred to as SATA 2.0 or SATA II -- hard drive is installed in the first of four bays for all models. The original Mac Pro models formally support a total capacity of 2 TB (four 500 MB drives), the "Early 2008" models up to 4 TB (four 1 TB drives), and the "Early 2009," "Mid-2010" and "Mid-2012" models up to 8 TB (four 2 TB drives), although EveryMac.com readers have reported that larger 3 TB hard drives work without issue in all models.

As long as the MacBook is SATA compatible... If you don't already know, take a quick look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacBook_Pro#Technical_specifications_3 . Looks like all models are SATA so you're good to go.

My Macpro is from late 2011 and the memory works fine, but I can not say anything about mid2010. Regards

sorry not to answer your question directly but be I wanted to warn you that this drive only lasted 10 months before dying when installed on a macbook pro 2010 model. if you comb through other reviews you'll see the same report by others.

Without actually seeing the product I can't be 100% but from the specs provided, I believe that it would work to replace for your mid2010 as long as it's the unibody MacBook Pro.

This is compatible with any computer (Mac or otherwise) that uses a 2.5" HDD. Older operating systems may not be able to utilize the SSD to its maximum capabilities, but this can work with pretty much any system.

It works fine on my late 2011 MBP and 2010 uses the same memory based on its specifications. My assumption is that it will work. Worst case scenario - return memory to Amazon.

I did install SSD drive in mac book, to replace old drive, using duplicator/recovery machine to copy the drive. I would pick any other slim drive, and avoid the Seagate. The Seagate is NOT Compatible with most systems.

Not sure, worked fine in my mid-2010 iMac. I suggest going to Apple icon on your menu bar and under "About This Mac" is a pane that will give you the memory type. Make sure it matches before ordering.I was super-paranoid about getting the right one but it worked out okay for me. Good luck!!!!!!!!

This SSD works with the following Macbook Pro Retina models ID#s: MacBookPro10,1, MacBookPro10,2, MacBookPro10,1, and MacBookPro10,2.These cover the Macbook Pro Retina's from June 2012, October 2012, and January 2013 which your Macbook Pro should fall under. To make sure please check your model ID# and make sure it is one of the ones I listed above.Thanks!OWC Mike P.

I have the same model, a mid 2009 15" unibody MacBook Pro. Did this drive end up working for you?
