Late 2011 MBP 15”, 2.5GHz Intel Core i7, running High Sierra 10.13.6
I want to swap out my 750 GB HDD for a TB SSD. Still want to keep the optical drive in place. Any guides/guidance ?
Is dit een goede vraag?

Did you really not see this:
MacBook Pro 15" Unibody eind 2011 Vervanging van de harde schijf
Was dit antwoord nuttig?
I did, indeed. But theis manual goes only up to the point of pulling out the old HDD. It says nothing about replacing it with a new SSD! Are there any size, form, or cable issues with making the transfer to a different format? Is there a guide which covers the replacement side of the issue ? There was an issue on older Macs of TRIM support, is this an issue here?

you have link in right side Parts: https://www.ifixit.com/Store/Guide/7513
The size and shape of SSD is same. Just put screws at same place.
In principle, you can get any typical SSD from where ever but you can buy it here as a courtesy…
older Macs of TRIM support
If you update to newer macOS you will get all best TRIM or whatever -> what Apple thinks you deserve. :-)
Mind you, for a 2011 mac, I would never install catalina OS, it slows down. (ya ya, OS updates and security whatever). Everyone has their choice!
