I did feel that my Retina MacBook Pro has getting hotter. I don’t think enough dust will accumulate that such preventive maintenance would be a necessity, but hey, if you have the tools, then why not? Once enough dust clogs out to disrupt or limit airflow, the fan has to work harder, and the notebook might get hotter. The other reason to open the cover is to clean out clogged up dust. It doesn’t actually produce less noise, but it disperses the sound energy over several discrete frequencies so that they sound less distinct. Remember how boring little things like the fan can also receive such attention to design at Apple? The fan has asymmetrically aligned fan blades that make the fan sound quieter. But did you know in the MacBook Air, the system board is really really tiny? The batteries, nowadays not user replaceable of course, are divided into six cells that basically take up whatever space is left. The system board doesn’t even take up half the space.

Do the same for deciding where you want to buy your screwdriver from. I got mine from iFixit.ĭisclaimer: Do you own due diligence and check what screwdriver is needed for your MacBook. However, considering how tiny these things are, and how easily the screws could become damaged, I decided to get mine from a more trustworthy store. The Retina MacBook Pro, along with some MacBook Airs, and perhaps some other models use P5 pentalobe screws to secure the bottom cover. There are several places you can buy the P5 pentalobe screwdriver. So what if you need or want to open the bottom cover of your Retina MacBook Pro? We’ll, there’s a screwdriver for that, of course. Apple’s hardware haven’t always been the easiest to open up, and in recent years, they’ve also taken to use somewhat non-standard screws. Disassembling a Retina MacBook Pro is easy, just as long as you have the right tools.
