Need to replace my decrepit (nearly 10 year old) unibody macbook. I've never kept up to date with the changing specs of mac's when I've had them but it seems like everything uses SSD instead of HDD and thats meant that for the price, I'd be getting less space. My current unibody has a 250gb HDD but I remember that a decent chunk of this was taken up by the OS. Since the switch to SSD, are they more efficient with the way they use space?
Also has anybody got any pointers on where there sweet spot is for macbooks now? I just need something to use for Adobe CS and general graphics stuff.
As you can tell by my line of questioning, I know not a lot when it comes to computers.
I would recommend an iCloud subscription to help free up space... it off loads files to the cloud but keeps aliases on your machine which let you re download anytime they are needed.
If you're interested I'm thinking of selling my 2017 13inch, BTO, 16gb, i5 upgrade, 512GB SSD...
