Hello,
I am currently a student in med school (still have 2 more years to go). I'm currently using a 13" MBP base model from 2014. I'm currently facing a little slowdown and I'm often running out of space because it is only 128GB. Now my question is: should I spend 150USD to upgrade my SSD and to replace the thermal paste so that I can use my mac until 2023 (when I graduate) or should I just buy a new Macbook Air M1 base model now? Another option would be to save some money by buying a used Macbook Pro or MacBook air (2016-2019). Thanks.
