> 24 hourThe kit comes with the special tools required to open the machine. Installation was completed in less than an hour and was able to install a new operating system and proceed with reconfiguration. Boot time was measured at 33.6 seconds to desktop. OWC Technical Support was excellent in helping me to determine the correct kit for my requirements.

> 24 hourMuy fácil de instalar, el disco interno SSD le da una velocidad de vértigo al mac mini 2014. Como consejo, busquen la versión de 512 GB o superior, pues la de 256 GB, depende de para qué se queda un poco corta.

> 24 hourThe hard drive on my Mac mini was an old sata that was already scrawling and everything was so slow that was unusable. This new ssd hard drive made all the difference. Easy to install (there is a great video and also comes with a good step by step installation guide, and now the Mac mini is back to life.
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.
Get Up and Zoom:
In addition to groundbreaking read and write speeds, the Aura Pro X2 is engineered with enhanced burst performance. This means your files load faster and stream fluidly, giving you an edge on your workflow, games, and creativity.
Easy DIY Upgrade:
In just 15 minutes, you can transform your Mac with Aura Pro X2 for speed and storage to rival the latest models. OWC video tutorials walk your through removing your original SSD and replacing it with a new one. Plus, our award-winning US-support team is a just phone call or chat away.
