16-inch model
The ultimate pro.
A 2.5-inch SATA SSD (I used a 480GB Kingston A400); A SATA to USB cable or a USB dock; PH-000 screwdriver to open your MacBook Pro and a T6 Torx head screwdriver to disassemble the hard drive assembly, standard issue for many MacBook Pro Repair Kits like this one. I have a '11 macbook pro 13' and replaced HDD at first (having two of them I did it effortless and moneyless), then without any fix decided to buy another HDD cable and problem seemed to be fixed. I faced the same issue again, still after the same amount of time (avg 3 weeks) so the flat cable failed again.

Disk Utility User Guide
Partitioning a disk divides it into individual sections, each of which acts as a separate volume.
However, with APFS, you shouldn't partition your disk in most cases. Instead, create multiple APFS volumes within a single partition. With the flexible space management provided by APFS, you can even install another version of macOS on an APFS volume.
Important: If you're partitioning your internal physical disk because you want to install Windows, use Boot Camp Assistant instead. Do not use Disk Utility to remove a partition that was created using Boot Camp Assistant. Instead, use Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition from your Mac.

Note: If you see a small volume with an asterisk, the partition is smaller than can be represented at the correct scale in the chart.
