Hello all,
I am currently looking to fix to sell my MacBook Air Mid-2013. I believe that the SSD failed about a week ago. As a result, I went to the Apple Store, and they told me that they could not tell if it was solely the SSD or the logic board. So I wound up purchasing a new MacBook Pro since I needed a computer for school ASAP. To recover some of the costs it would help if I could fix the SSD that is currently in the Air.

Is the OWC Aura SSD a good replacement that is worth the money? Is it even worth the money to replace the SSD or just try to sell it as is? Or are there any other outlets online that maybe sell the refurbished model of the Apple SSD? I don't have the original part number and that seems to help find things.

Thanks for any and all help,
Jgelin.

Amazon has a couple of used drives that were pulled from working machines. You can find the same on Ebay. I personally would rather deal with used stuff on Amazon than Ebay but if you do your homework on ebay sellers you might find a better deal. here is a link to the Amazon page with pulled 128gb and 256gb drives.
