You may even consider it an upgrade of significant value. It will be interesting for you in that you've been editing on a tablet. The only things I'd buy for a computer that old, would be things that will be useful on my next computer. The hardware will be obsolete no matter what you do. But as has been mentioned, it's probably not a good idea to spend money on it beyond something like an SSD external drive. That being said, for the price, I'd make an effort to make it work. I have a 4k monitor on a 2018 macBook and it operates at 1920x1080 most of the time. One of the reasons I no longer use the 2010 4 core i7 is it only supports that same resolution. As far as I can tell the 2013 MacBook Air has 2560x1600 as it's maximum resolution. As well the mini will drive 2 4k monitors.

I don't think a 2013 drive will support with the optimum write speed for those drives For example, my Mac mini will process and write 10 jpegs of approximately ~1 MB, from full size images to 3840-2160 and process from raw to jpeg, in less than 2 seconds, it's usually done before I look up to see if it's done. It greatly increase write and save times, but for photography, at least for me, I really can't function on less than a 250 GB internal drive, On my Mac mini I currently use a Samsung 1 TB SSD and a 6 GB HD. My 2010 4 core i7 has a new 250 GB hard drive installed by the local authorized Apple technician. If your experience with Mac goes well, then getting even the cheapest current generation M1 Mac will be a massive upgrade, and that's where your money should go.My Mac mini with the M1 just flies. If your experience with Mac goes well, then getting even the cheapest current generation M1 Mac will be a massive upgrade, and that's where your money should go. But still it's better than having a computer with compromised security. You need to read up on it first and accept that the computer will be slow. I did that with an old iMac before just to make sure it was getting security updates and it worked OK. So I think that 2013 model should still be a usable computer for light use.Д«y the way, if you really want to eke out more life from a Mac, there are ways you can trick it into installing a newer OS version, even if Apple doesn't allow it. I was using it for managing 16mp JPEG files from my K-5 IIs and that was no sweat. Having said that, I was using a 2010 MacBook Air (Core 2 Duo) until this January, and it wasn't really causing me any stress until I had to spend the whole day in Webex and Zoom conferences. The RAM, the older screen and processor are limitations that you can't get around. You can probably get a replacement battery too, but I don't think it's worth it. That's a third of the way to getting the current model Air. A quick search showed that a 1TB internal SSD upgrade is $299. Sure, there are companies that will sell you upgrades to the internal SSD, but they are a bit pricy and the money would be better used toward a new system. You can select another country/language from (though I used the trick explained here ).My advice would be to give it a go just to see if you like Mac OS, but don't spend any significant money on it. I could find Premium resellers in Tallinn (see ): IM ARVUTID IDEAL TALLINN Yes, I'd definitely go to an Apple authorized reseller.

Are they the appropriate place to get this done? My city and country (Tallinn, Estonia) has no official Apple stores that I know of, but does have Apple-authorised resellers. This video (How to Upgrade/Replace the Hard Drive in the 2011 15' MacBook Pro) shows the procedure (just for information, I understand you don't want to void your AppleCare warranty). Yes, it should be possible, others have done it. Is it possible to upgrade the SSD at all? I have heard rumours that they are soldered in after 2010, and are not replaceable.
