My 2010 MacBook Pro needs a new drive. Had an SSD put in a couple of years ago and it is now failing.
The shop says I have 3 options for repairs.
1 - replace drive
2 - in addition, OS install
3 - in addition, data recovery
I have a recent complete backup available, would I need 2 or 3?

If you have a back up and the SSD is fucked, just replace it yourself. Its a canter then just back it up off the complete back up you have and save yourself some money.

Old macs are so easy to change drives.

So to be clear, my complete backup contains the OS too, not only data?
