However some Kits are Mac orientated in choice of SSD whereas purchasing individual NVMe drives can, I read, in some cases be uncertain regarding compatibility. My understanding is the PCIe Gen 3.0 has a higher speed of operation than the SATA/SSD.Ī kit is attractive way to go but I get the impression this may be expensive in terms of cost per GB. Out-perform a comparable 1TB internal SATA/SSD replacement of the Fusion HDD. Further, I get the impression it will be cheaper and But I will do this once only and wish to get it right.Īm I correct in believing the entire computer o/s and data can reside on a 1TB blade NVMe PCIe Gen3 M2 SSD (in my case), just like any other drive? My impression is that the Apple o/s and all data files can be driven from that one NVMe/SSD formatted as APFS just as any type of drive. Now the hard drive has died and Apple can only tell me Sorry when all it should be is ALLOW ME TO BUY an OEM dive to replace the dead one.
I recognise installing an SATA/SSD is clearly less complicated than an NVMe PCIe blade. I ordered it maxed out with fastest drive and best video card available at the time. The whole process (excluding time waiting for parts and for installing macOS) took less than 1-hour. I have read the installation procedures and am not fazed with the task as I have previous experience upgrading G2 processor and graphics card, and installing optical and HDD in 24" iMacs. Do you want an SSD for your iMac, but don't want to pay the Apple price That sounds a lot like me, so I upgraded my iMac. I am considering a speed upgrade converting my iMac 2019 5K to SSD and I seek advice regarding choice between NVMe/SSD and or replacement of internal SATA HDD with internal SATA/SSD. Upgrading Fusion Intel iMac : most cost effective use of SSD.
