    My mac Mini is a whole new machine. Do follow the directions in the comment from the person who explains that you must set it up to be your startup disk. The process is not as easy as you would think. You will need to do some research. I had to format the disk so that the computer would see it as something it can start up from and I had to install the operating system on it first. If you can do this prior to installation, its recommended. Check out the tech forums online. I just added a few more years of use to my computer. It annoys me that mac started soddering the memory on so now you can do upgrades yourself. This is the only viable option. I have a 2011 imac that Ive revamped that runs like a beast. I may never let it go. Gone are the days you could manage your own machine.

    Great item. Fitted the Mac mini and installation was very quick, less than 10 mins start to finish. Although my kit didn’t come with the plastic tool for removing the base or the securing screw for the ssd. But apart from that it was great.

    OWC has the installation videos on their website that show how to to install this SSD in a 2014 Mac mini. All of the hardware necessary to properly install the SSD is provided. The process is pretty easy, and the results are over 10 times faster than the original equipment hard drive. Note that the original hard drive can also stay installed and used for additional (and slower) storage. Definitely recommended, for how easy it was.

    There are few times when adding something to a computer that completely changes it. I was ready to get rid of my Mac Mini. It had good horse power, but a lousy HD. Now with this kit, it is a new machine. Everything you need came with the kit. Installation took minutes. Formatting was super quick. It works and feels like a super fast Mac Now. Boot times have gone from minutes to seconds. I run multiple monitors and it used to take forever to get them to mirror because of the old HD. Not any more. Everything is up and running in less than a minute. I highly recommend this product. Purchase the largest you can afford. You will not be disappointed in the results!!!

    Complete instructions in an online video, all tools and parts, make installation a snap. My 2014 Mac mini is now faster and better than ever. Could not recommend this product more.

    I pains me to write this review as OWC has been my go-to for mac supplies over the past 20 years. I ordered the 1TB Aura Pro X3 SSD with tools and Installation components. Only the SSD was shipped to me. Ill amend this review if this situation can be resolved quickly.

    Installed the SSD into my 2014 13 Macbook Pro. Made a timemachine backup of previous drive onto an external then swapped. When booting back into recovery mode the disk was not showing up at first. I removed the drive and reinstalled it and restarted the device twice and the drive showed up. i have almost 9x more storage and my speeds have doubled if you believe you can do this project you can. I have very little experience with this stuff i was just bored.

The Aura Pro X2 SSD gives you up to 16 times more space and the speed to keep up with your imagination today and tomorrow. Upgrade your Mac with Aura Pro X2 SSD for a fraction of the cost of a new model and keep your Mac running for years.

Blazing Fast and Super Cool

With read speeds reaching 2989MB/s and write speeds of 1208MB/s, the Aura Pro X2 is up to twice as fast as the original SSDs, delivering performance on par with the latest models. It runs cooler and consumes less power than earlier SSD models, so you can run at peak for longer than ever.

When it"s go time, getting off the line and maintaining a high level of performance are equally important. Aura Pro X2 is engineered with advanced SLC caching, providing instant full-speed write acceleration, meaning those media projects and games stream fluidly and respond without lag time. Aura Pro X2 PCIe-based flash storage upgrades are precisely engineered for your Mac, so you"ll never need to compromise your data by relying on complicated software hacks or TRIM-enablers to get the most from your upgrade. Just install, migrate your data, and enjoy the great performance of flash storage with up to 16 times the capacity of the factory-installed drive. OWC SSDs perform maintenance tasks in the background that optimize the health, performance, and endurance of your flash drive. These jobs take advantage of available, unwritten areas on the SSD. Aura Pro X2 PCIe-based flash storage reserves 7% of the overall capacity as free space. Always. With this allocated free space, Aura SSDs can perform these normal maintenance tasks making your drive more stable, dependable, and ultimately a safer place to store your data.

Keep The Mac you know:

From drives to gear to stickers, you’ve put time into making your Mac your own. The Aura Pro X2 can give you up to 16x more storage and up to double the speed of the original drive. With that capacity and power, you can keep your Mac running optimally for years — at a fraction of the cost of buying a new model.

Continuous Compatibility:

Aura Pro X2 is designed for the latest macOS versions (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.

macOS 10.13 High Sierra (or later macOS) must be installed on the host computer before installing the Aura Pro X2 SSD. These OS versions include an EFI firmware update for your host computer. Without the update, your new Aura Pro X2 will not function. When installing macOS to your new SSD, boot and press Cmd-Opt-R, then follow the prompts. This will ensure the latest OS version is installed.
