    Some Macbooks since 2015 had customizable hard drives at the time of purchase, but are not upgradable afterwards.  Everymac.com is a reference that allows you to look up your Apple device and see whether certain components are upgradable. Your options would then include external storage like USB drives and sticks to supplement your main drive. You can also buy a large external drive (1TB at least) and archive all of your files to it, reducing the size of your on board drive.

    I wouldn't put a HD into a good computer, now that SSDs are getting big and cheap.  They are much faster. 

    Surgery on a MacBook is daunting, though.  If (like me) you have large blocks of "archival" data that you rarely need to access, you can postpone an internal upgrade by moving same to an external hard drive or USB stick(s).  There are some of the latter now that hold as much as HDs used to.
