Use this guide to upgrade or replace the solid-state drive in a MacBook Air 11” Late 2010. This MacBook Air uses a proprietary storage drive connector, and is therefore not compatible with common M.2 drives without the use of an adapter.
Before you perform this repair, if at all possible, back up your existing SSD. Then, either familiarize yourself with internet recovery or create a bootable external drive so you’ll be ready to install macOS onto your new drive and migrate your data to the new SSD.
Finally, we strongly recommend installing macOS 10.13 High Sierra (or a later macOS) before replacing the original SSD from your MacBook Air. Most new SSDs require updated storage drivers not found in versions of macOS prior to High Sierra.

is there any difference between SSD for macbook air and macbook pro...??
is that possible that we can just run macbook air only HDD..?
Any chance of squeezing in an SSD any larger than 256 GB?
Just bought a late-2010 11" MBA off Amazon Marketplace, which was actually advertised as mid-2011. My plan was to upgrade it with a 1 TB SSD, which wouldn't have been a problem with the mid-2011 model. Seems this is not going to work with this one, right?
