Description
Keep your edge with the Aura Pro X2 1TB NVMe SSD Upgrade from OWC / Other World Computing. Designed for installation in a Mac Pro desktop computer (late 2013), this internal flash/SSD drive upgrade features a PCIe 3.1 x4, NVMe 1.3 interface and a custom blade form factor. The drive uses 3D TLC synchronous NAND flash memory with advanced SLC caching to deliver sequential data read and write speeds of up to 1536 and 1354 MB/s respectively—up to twice as fast as the factory-installed drives. Additionally, the Aura Pro X2 is calibrated to consume only 5.7W during operation and to run cool.
The Aura Pro X2 is designed for macOS High Sierra 10.13 and later, taking full advantage of the advanced features of APFS including strong encryption, copy-on-write metadata, space sharing, cloning for files and directories, snapshots, fast directory sizing, atomic safe-save primitives, and improved file system fundamentals. The drive reserves 7% of the overall capacity as free space to perform background maintenance tasks that optimize the health, performance, and endurance of your flash drive. Included with the SSD are a heat sink and installation tools.

I paid a Mac pro to install it. So far it works great.

With this kit and OWC tutorial video, I was able to do NVME SSD upgrade on Retina iMac smoothly. Took about 2 hours to do slowly and carefully. I also replaced SATA drive with an SATA SSD and combined the two SSD’s into a big Fusion SSD. Yes, you can do Fusion with SSDs! The machine has 3TB internally and is FAST. Btw, I put a super slim heat sink on the OWC NVME SSD. These suckers get hot and a heat sink makes it more reliable.

MacBook Air mid 2013 internal SSD replacement. Worked exactly as expected. Easy to install.

I’ve purchased OWC’s at different sites. By far, B&H is the best place to get these. Great service and an excellent SSD!

It will take time to install this SSD, but it worth it. The speed is significantly improved. Remember just remove all the original hard drive.

Perfect upgrade for your Mac!

Took about 3 hours to do this upgrade; all the parts were correct fit, tools worked great, and I even had a couple of screws leftover, which is always a plus?

Fast and plenty of storage. Replaced a 480 with this drive. She said it’s faster so I’m going with that.
