Samsung 120GB Basic Solid State
Amazon's catalog no longer lists this product (checked 2026-11-02). The name comes from the link HN users posted.
If you want a really nice hackintosh laptop with good build quality and great performance for the money you can't go wrong with this:
A second hand i5 HP ProBook with 4GB RAM. £126. Add to this a 120GB Samsung EVO SSD for £55 from Amazon, and a £6 wifi card from eBay. Less than £200 all in.
Everything works out of the box on this laptop except the wifi, which you have to replace (or use a USB adapter).
I configured one last week. Mavericks runs perfectly. Quartz Express, Sleep/Wake, all works.
