    I got an OWC (Other World Computing) caddy a while back for my previous Macbook Pro. It was very solid and the manual itself with the installation instructions was very professional.

    They sell them on Amazon, called "OWC Data Doubler".

    Hello, and yes. I have seen this caddy. However the 69-99 price is kinda crazy... Any other suggestions?
