I format it as mac os extended right?
-
When you install the OS, how do you get the black screen with gray text en top left corner?? I can only see a folder with a flashing question mark.. :(

Well I liked your video, It helped me install a new hard drive in my wife's macbook. Somehow it didn't tear holes in the time space continuum. I think there may be some psychology behind ebernet's comment...

@ecuamario I just got a 250 gig seagate. Never had problems with them before, but first experience on a mac.
-
Hi, i just bought on mbp off of ebay and it came with a seagate 500gb hard drive, have u ever used seagate? are they realiable?
thanks
-
@ronaldguinhawa yeah you could install a 500gb if you wanted to, just make sure its a SATA 2.5
-
to boot from the CD drive
-
why do you need to hold the c key
-
in a macbook 13.3 inch you can only put a 320 GB in i believe
-

This is a very bad video. 1st, you are covering the work with your hand. 2nd, you are inserting a drive without replacing the bracket/magnetic shield that came with the original drive. A really bad no no. People might think this is the way to install a drive, when it is not. There are plenty of video tutorials that properly show replacing the magnetic shield. PLEASE pull this video author of the video!!

I can get the hard drive out just fine without the sledge, and if you don't like the video rate it and be on your way :)

make sure you do not choose archive and install in toe install options, i think that is what the problem was.
