I need to replace the SSD on my MacBook Pro (13" Early 2015) but I can’t afford to get it done at the moment. I’ll need to try it myself. The model number for my MacBook Pro MF843LL/A and it says the drive is 512 GB flash_memory_solid_state. Can someone send me a link to the exact hard drive I need to get? I’ve never done this before and want to make sure I get the right one.

1You need to open the case and check the exact drive - also make sure you have the serial number. I took a macbook pro 15" in and what was listed was not what was fitted...– Solar MikeCommented Jan 7, 2020 at 13:22

Are you replacing because it's broken, or because you want larger storage? Is 512 Gb the drive you have, or the drive you want?– benwiggyCommented Jan 7, 2020 at 13:26

It’s broken. 512 is the one I have.– WoodnoteCommented Jan 7, 2020 at 15:32

See https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/macbook-pro-retina-display-faq/macbook-pro-retina-display-13-how-to-upgrade-ssd-storage.html for a lot of details about how to upgrade the internal disk of a MacBook Pro, including information about compatible drive models and instruction on how to actually replace the drive.
It probably goes without saying, but make sure you have a good backup before you start.
