  • Supports MacBook Air A1465 A1466 and Pro Retina A1398 A1502 models

12+16pin Mac SSD Adapter

This adapter converts an M.2 NGFF M-key AHCI SSD to the proprietary 12+16pin connector used in 2013-2015 MacBook Air and Retina MacBook Pro models. It is designed for owners of compatible Apple laptops who want to replace the original storage with a standard M-key drive. The card does not support B-key or B/M-key SSDs.

Check Mac Model and SSD Keying

Verify that your Mac matches the listed model numbers such as A1465, A1466, A1493, A1502 or A1398 from 2013 or 2014. Confirm the replacement SSD uses an M-key notch only; B-key or dual-key modules will not fit the adapter. Ensure the operating system is macOS High Sierra or newer if you plan to use an NVMe drive.

Fits Inside Existing Drive Slot

The adapter occupies the same 12+16pin slot as the factory SSD, requiring no extra brackets or cables. It frees you from sourcing rare Apple-specific modules and lets you choose widely available M.2 M-key AHCI storage. NVMe drives are only usable on High Sierra or later.
