HOW TO BACK UP MACBOOK PRO TO NEW SSD FREE
With this little guy and a up-to-date macOS install, finally we got space… a lot of free space! But thanks to the Chinese creativity, We can find things like this: We have PCIe 2.0 with NVMe… but we still have THE connector. With this setup, we can have modern storage in a mature MacBook. Also, supports NVMe protocol (but it requires macOS 10.10.3 or later). I am lucky to be a proud owner of a Mac Book Pro 13" Late-2013, the first MacBook Pro release that supports PCIe 2.0 x2 with 4 channels connections, a lot of speed. I saw this miracle on Youtube first and after that, started to get into the nitty-gritty about unofficial storage upgrades for MacBook Pro. An M.2 adapter to proprietary storage slot on Apple Board (and no, there is no name for this connector). For me, living in Brazil, where we constantly US$ 1.00 >= R$ 3,00 (that time) was impracticable.īack in 2019, I found a new piece of technology appears on eBay/Alibaba/MercadoLivre. After couple years, one company, OWC Digital manufactures and sells SSD cards that uses Apple’s proprietary connector. So, I lost my hopes when I bought my MacBook Pro 13 inches in 2013, with no option to upgrade RAM and no products available in the market to upgrade the 256GB SSD. How I miss the MacBook Pro Mid-2012 line and its removable RAM modules and lot’s of upgrades, right? Don’t you?
