And you should probably not give advice when you don't know what you're talking about. You cannot put a standard SSD in a 2011 macbook air.

Nope. 2011 and onward (or 2010, can't remember) MacBook Airs use proprietary SSD connections. If you wanna upgrade your MBA storage, check out OWC They sell SSDs with these connections.
