OSCOO 2TB NVMe SSD for MacBook - PCIe Gen3.0x4 Internal SSD, Up to 2000MB/s, Compatible with MacBook Air 2013-2017, MacBook Pro 2013-2016, Mac mini 2014, iMac 2012-2018, Mac Pro 2013 - ON900A

I purchased this OSCOO 1TB NVMe SSD because my original drive failed, and my MacBook wouldn’t boot up — it was completely dead in the water. I figured I’d give this replacement a shot and also get an upgrade in storage and speed, and I’m so glad I did. PRO TIP: READ THE USER MANUAL! I almost returned the SSD because my MacBook didn’t recognize it at first. The manual’s instructions in Step 3 are PERFECT — you must follow every step. I initially missed the part in Disk Utility to show all devices, and you must select the SSD and erase it. Once I did that exactly as the manual outlined, my MacBook booted up perfectly, and now it feels like new — super fast and responsive. What I love about this SSD: Spacious 1TB storage — plenty of room for photos, videos, apps, and projects. Fast performance — PCIe Gen3.0 x4 offers smooth file transfers and app launches. Solid build quality — feels reliable and well-made, supporting TRIM and SMART for long-term durability. Bottom line: This SSD saved my MacBook and gave it a brand-new lease on life. Follow the manual carefully, and you’ll get a fast, spacious, and dependable upgrade that’s well worth it.

Installed fine in my 2013 mac pro. I formatted it and installed open core legscy patcher. I have so much space now.

Macbook Air 2012 does not recognize it. It does not work.

Perfect drop in replacement for MacBook Pro (mid-2015). Included screw drivers made installation even easier. Storage capacity and seek speed seem to be as advertised and are a great value for the money.

Swapped in this OSCOO 512GB NVMe SSD and my 2015 MacBook Air practically flew out the door—it’s snappy as a newer model. Transfer speeds are legit up to 2100 MB/s, and apps load in a flash without freezing mid-task. Install was smooth, and it slotted right into my PCIe Gen 3 bay—didn't even need extra tools. If your older Mac's feeling sluggish, this SSD is the upgrade you’ve gotta try. Keep in mind, you need to have big sur or higher in order for the hard drive to be recognized. I didn't have the old hard drive, so had to install high sierra on a usb stick, then create a big sur USB installable media, then boot from that and it was recognized. I could then update to monterey.

This took quite a bit of effort to get the macBook Air a1466 to recognize. What I found is that the card allowed me to misalign it. After the first install, it wasn't recognized. I tried using the disk utility -> view, but no dice. I then re-openned the macBook, and then pulled the SSD back as far as the screw would allow and did my best to line it up straight. Then it was able to see the SSD. I was able to format it, and install macOS to it. The reason it didn't get the full 5 stars is that I had to jump through the hoops to make it work.

Great item, work great.

Works great and great price
