Mac Specs > By Capability > Mac Storage Upgrades > MacBook Air Models
Storage info for each MacBook Air — details on speed, dimensions, and hard drive
and SSD interface specifics — is listed below along with common identifiers suitable
to identify a MacBook Air in order to determine which hard drives and SSDs are
compatible.
Note that MacBook Air models released in 2018 and later cannot have the
internal storage upgraded at all after purchase.
If you are not sure which MacBook Air you have, and the Model Identifier and EMC
Number below are not sufficient for identification, you also may look it up with other
identifiers -- including its Serial Number -- with EveryMac.com's Ultimate Mac Lookup
feature and the EveryMac app. If you need more help, refer to Mac Identification.
If you find this page useful, please Bookmark & Share it. Thank you.

Click the triangle to the left of a system to open "Quick Specs" -- the two most relevant
identifiers for storage, standard hard drive and/or SSD details, storage dimensions
and connector type(s), and links to buy compatible storage from site sponsors -- and
click on the name or image for complete specifications. Asterisks indicate important
details on the complete specs page.
