Do you happen to own a 2012 version of the MacBook Air with a 64GB or 128GB solid state drive? If so, you will want to check out the drive to see if it is one of the Toshiba branded flash drives that is affected by a potential problem and eligible for a free replacement via Apple. More details on this can be found at Apple’s recently announce .

Having been through several other Apple recalls, the process if you have an affected machine is pretty straight forward but you may be without a machine for a while as it is replaced. Just be sure to use Apple’s Time Machine program to back up your system before you turn it in for the replacement. This is because the drive will be replaced and you will essentially receive back a completely blank system as if it were brand new. Thus, you will need to restore your system using the Time Machine recovery process. For more details on using this, check out Apple’s page, specifically the Restoring data from Time Machine backups.
