It is meant to be used on hackintosh but I think it might work on a macbook pro from 2015 with the adapter and a nvme ssd like the samsung 960/950 evo/pro. In principle, I don't see why it wouldn't. and if it'll get the full speed of the 950. (.) The REAL question is if the NVMe protocol will be a hiccup (as in, I don't personally know that answer). You can buy an adapter from M.2 to MBPr or Air for about $20. But i'm not sure it can use for this model. MACBOOK PRO UEFITOOL NVME DRIVER UPGRADEOn IFIXIT - MBP early 2015 SSD can upgrade with Samsung 950 pro? ![]() I share the links there in case of some of them got a return from a test with the Sintech adapter or an other one. Unfortunately, we are busy in other projects, and still can't get new system to test it.Īfter I created this post, I seen there is some people with the same question in other communities, waiting at the same step. I got a reply with some references (added to this post), but no answer since. I sent an email to Sintech to get more informations on their adapter. MACBOOK PRO UEFITOOL NVME DRIVER PATCHSystem supportįinally for the system, macOS now support NVMe SSDs, from unofficially OSX El Capitan (with a patch to boot) and natively macOS High Sierra (even as boot, see an article about the NVME support and a confirmation from the Hackintosh community). So Sintech may have given these NVMe SSD as incompatible not because of the adapter incompatibility, but because of the destination OS incompatibility. From a Youtube comment on a upgrade video with a AHCI SSD and the Sintech adapter. ![]() I emailed the store which sell that adapter and problem is that macOS doesn't support 3rd party NVMe SSDs, but Windows 10 and Linux do. MACBOOK PRO UEFITOOL NVME DRIVER DRIVERSThen for the interface, what I understand from AHCI/NVMe is that it is only a controller interface, depending on the system drivers on the MacBook and not on the hardware itself. It seems they simply give as compatible the list of the AHCI SSDs they've tested, and as incompatible the most known NVMe SSD models. The product page clearly stipules only compatible with a limited set of AHCI SSDs, but I do not see any reason for these "incompatibilities", as there is no other software/hardware standards for the PCIe M.2 AHCI models. NVMe SSD compatibility? Connector adapterĪt first for the connector, I often seen the Sintech adapter recommended to use the AHCI SSD above in a MacBook Air/Pro. So standard PCIe M.2 devices seems to be up to 3x cheaper than the MacBook PCIe M.2 SSD.
