OK so I have received a 13" Macbook air 1.3ghz with 8gb memory & 128 ssd hard drive. I know nothing about fixing or replacement of hard drives. This computer is not new but has been refurbished. I would like to put in a bigger ssd hard drive 240 or 500.

Can anyone provide me a reputable place that would put in a new one? I've watched YouTube videos on them doing it but I don't trust myself with tools, guns & military hardware absolutely but not computers! Anywhere from Lincoln to Omaha is fine.

When you go to the Apple menu in the top left and hit "About this Mac", what does the dialog bring up for a time frame? Mine says

"MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011)"

under the macOS Sierra thing.
