Apple SSD Enclosure 2013-2017

This USB-C 3.0 enclosure connects original Apple SSDs from 2013 to 2017 MacBook Air, Pro and Mac Pro models. It uses a 12+16 pin interface and aluminium housing for heat dissipation. Measured continuous read and write speeds reach up to 460 MB/s. No driver installation is required for plug-and-play operation.

For Apple SSD owners only

Suitable for users with original Apple SSDs from the listed model numbers such as A1493, A1502, A1398, A1465, A1466 and the specific part codes provided. Third-party SSDs, including OWC units, are explicitly not compatible and will not work. Buyers who have non-Apple or third-party replacement drives should look for a different enclosure.

12+16 pin proprietary connector

The single specification that decides compatibility is the 12+16 pin connector which fits only original Apple SSDs from the compatible model years. The enclosure does not support any other drive interface or form factor. Verify your SSD part number against the listed Apple model codes before purchasing.
