I have a MacBook Pro (Mid 2012). I upgraded my 500GB SATA hard drive to a 1T SATA hard drive, and my 4 Gb ram to 8 GB ram. Mac OS 10.12.6
At first it seems to run ok, not a lot of improvement but it was a little better. After a couple weeks now (used it maybe twice), it is running extremely slow.
I have done:
SMC/PRAM resets
A full system check - no errors
Malware scan - no threats
Closed applications in activity monitor
Unchecked start up apps
Checked system information and Hard drive was verified - both ram OK
I'm not sure what else to do, or even what the problem is. Help would be appreciated, thanks.
