Review: Allows for a huge upgrade at small cost - It came with clear instructions and was easy to install in my late 2015 Mb-Pro. I purchased a Samsung 1TB NVME 980 to install, I know it's a bit slower that the 970 Evo Plus but you'll be hitting the bandwidth limit of the MacBook way before you hit the limit of these SSD, it uses less power so the battery will last longer, it has better reliability and it was £10 cheaper. I also chose Samsung because I've had bad experiences with other manufactures of SSDs in the past and the original Mac drive was Samsung. I don't think the adapter actually has any electronics in it? I looks like it's just remapping the pins to the correct locations so drive compatibility will probably be the same across all adapters... but I could be wrong. If you click the SSD into the adapter properly and then into the MacBook with a bit of confidence, everything fits perfectly. I used the supplied Sintech screw to hold them in place, then I put the OEM screw with the OEM SSD and packed them into the box for safe keeping. I went down the route of making a Monterey bootable USB following Apples instructions, it was simple enough to do and worth doing before your new drive arrives. If your OEM SSD has actually died, hopefully you have a time machine backup or you'll have make the USB with another Mac or ask a friend. You will need a pentalobe screwdriver bit, I think it was P5. This will be included in an iFixit kit or similar, I think the SSD screw was a Torx? It looked like a P6 but neither of the pentalobe bits fitted so I used a T4. I hope Monterey will see me through for a few more years before Adobe drops support like they did for Catalina, this laptop still has a good spec with great performance so it would be a real shame if I was forced to move on.
Review: Works brilliantly, the set up can vary (see instructions in main body of review) - Works brilliantly, though may take a few minutes to get working so it requires a small amount of patience. My write speed has tripled, my read speed had tripled, the laptop is noticeably more faster. If you are having problems installing please see the instructions I have listed below, there are a couple of extra steps required My MacBook Pro is a 13" mid-2014 retina, A1502 model. The NVMe SSD I have installed is a Samsung 970 Evo NVMe M.2 SSD - capacity of the drive is 1TB. Steps to install: 1) Create Time Machine back up of MacBook. For those that don't know Time Machine is free, it is made by Apple and comes pre-installed on your MacBook. 2) Install the drive with the adapter into the MacBook 3) Turn on MacBook, immediately after turning on press and hold 'Command/cmd' and the 'R' Key, this will enter the Apple Restore Partition 4) Enter disk utility to see if the drive is present, if it is present then click ERASE. Name the drive whatever you wish. Set the format as 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and the Scheme as GUID Partition Map. 5) Then exit out of Disk Utility (press the red button in the top left of the Window), Plug in your hard drive that you are using as your Time Machine and click the Restore Using Time Machine option. Install it to the Drive you named in Step 4. sit back and let it complete. Additional steps: 4a) for me the Disk Utility would not show the Drive, so what I had to do was shut down the MacBook. 4b) When the device has fully shut down press the Power button again, when you press the power button hold down the following Keys: 'Command/cmd' and 'Option (sometimes this is shared with the alt key as it is with mine)' and 'P' and 'R' 4c) Hold the 4 keys, you will here the MacBook chime, keep it held until it Chimes again and then release 4d) After then wait for the MacBook to boot up into the Recovery Partition and look in Disk Utility, you should see the drive in Disk Utility now. The laptop will reboot a few times before booting into the Recovery environment 4e) continue with steps 4 and 5as they are listed above the additional steps.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between your shorter adapter plug (b07fyy3h5f) and your longer adapter card (b01cwwaeng)?  which is better for crucial 1tb sdd?**
A: I got the longer one and it does allow for airflow above and below the card.  Appears to be better for airflow than the shorter one.

**Q: Technically this should support all NON-nvme pcie/m.2 ssd's?**
A: Since the introduction of OS X High Sierra, NVMe has been supported. In fact, our customers use NVMe drives almost exclusively with this adapter today as AHCI based M.2 drives are outdated and harder to come by nowadays. Please note that if you're using this adapter with an NVMe drive, you MUST first install OS X High Sierra on the built-in AHCI drive. The High Sierra installation package will install firmware updates that enable NVMe support!

**Q: Hi, has anyone use it with samsung 970 evo 2TB on 15" macbook pro 2015 mid year (retina)?**
A: yes,many customers used 970 EVO .you can read forum: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/upgrading-2013-2014-macbook-pro-ssd-to-m-2-nvme.2034976/page-65

**Q: Hello, can i receive the stuff tomorrow? i am in 30 rich st, malden. ma. i can drive to anywhere close to boston.**
A: you should ask Amazon service if you choose buy "fullfilled by Amazon" because the shipment was shipped from Amazon warehouse. if you choose "fullfilled by seller" then we will ship from China, it will take longer time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When prepared, works exactly as intended!
*by M***D on 1 May 2020*

This review will be scored based on the product, but will include a note about how it's used. Overall the physical installation process was relatively seamless - upon installation, I believed it was too long and so took a microfile to the screw section in order to fit it, until I put the SSD in and the installation force of THAT pushed the Sintech adaptor even further into the socket than I was willing to go with the bendy-ness of the adaptor. This meant all my filing was pointless.....with a bit of effort and a lot of my Other Half's trust in me around her Macbook, I could've fitted it without mods and it would have worked. I used a Crucial P1, one of the SSDs on the list. Upon installation the SSD wasn't detected, even when using diskutil on Terminal. THIS IS HOW TO INSTALL: 1) USE A USB - Internet Recovery didn't like what I was doing one single bit 2) USE OFFICIAL APPLE - I tried using a .dmg from another website, and there was no luck at all. BEFORE installing, use your old install to update to the latest version, do a Time Machine backup, and then create USB installation media following Apples instructions! I spent hours troubleshooting, so hopefully this solves anyones issues before they have to re-dismantle their laptop. This was on a mid-2015 Macbook Pro 13". The screws you'll need are all 5-point star heads, I in particular used 1.2 and 1.5 and they seemed to do the job. Not official Apple, but worked nonetheless. KEEP THE SCREWS SEPARATE AND ORDERED - it's Apple after all, so they have specific holes to go back into!
