About
Glynn Sergeant — Auckland-based Mac upgrade and repair specialist
I’m based in Grafton, Auckland Central, and I focus on practical Apple service work that helps extend the life of older Macs. That includes SSD upgrades, repairs, troubleshooting, and data-related support for MacBook, iMac, and Mac mini.
My goal is simple: honest advice, reliable service, and careful work that gets your Mac running properly again — often with a dramatic improvement in speed and everyday usability.
Why MacDrive Update

Reliable turnaround
Fast, practical service for people who need their Mac back working properly without unnecessary delays.
Performance gains
A strong focus on upgrades and repairs that noticeably improve speed, responsiveness, and day-to-day usability.
Care for your data
Careful handling of machines and files, with trust and data sensitivity clearly valued by customers.
