Not yet. There are no 1.8" 256GB SSD drives on the market.

You can view our other videos for the procedure of hard drive removal for a standard Macbook. Some SSD drives will work. We sell them at our website.

The hard drive that you need to buy is "Samsung 1.8" HS082HB 80GB ZIF/LIF Hard Drive 8MB 5MM" The model number is "HS082HB." I actually did this repair on my Macbook Air. It took three tries to get the hard drive to work properly, but I got it working. The most important step is that there is a little black release on the connector to the hard drive which must be popped up before you can disconnect/reconnect it. Thank you for the video though!

Right now there isn't a lot out there in terms of replacement options. We hope to start carrying something soon enough though at our site.

Which hard drive on the market will be able to replace the one on macbook air? I remember Jobs briefly mentioned that they were iPod hard drives inside. 80GB is just not enough.

High powered magnets, yes...a magnetized screwdriver, no.
