The actual upgrade process couldn’t have been easier. The package includes two types of Torx screwdrivers, the Aura flash storage unit, and the Envoy Pro needed to repurpose the old stock SSD. If you opt for the drive-only, you can purchase the tools separately for only $5.00. When you buy the Upgrade Kit, OWC ensures that all of the tools necessary to perform the upgrade are bundled with the Aura PCIe flash storage unit.

The point is, there are many ways to backup and recover your data, you just have to choose the solution that you’re most comfortable using.

When using the Envoy Pro, you can simply move your data back over to your new flash drive once the upgrade is completed. Placing the Aura inside of the Envoy Pro may damage both the drive and the enclosure. Keep in mind that only the stock SSD that you remove from your Mac works with the Envoy Pro. If you opted for OWC’s SSD Upgrade Kit, you get an Envoy Pro drive enclosure, which lets you repurpose the stock SSD that’s removed from your MacBook upon upgrade, and all the tools (screwdrivers) needed to complete the job. You can do this by using Time Machine or an external drive. The first thing that you should do prior to upgrading your MacBook is to backup all of your files.

Yes, finally! MacBook Pro and MacBook Air owners with qualifying machines can come out of the storage dark ages with OWC’s new Aura PCIe flash storage upgrade. That wouldn’t be so bad if there was a way to upgrade the amount of internal storage, but sadly there has been no upgrade solution…until now.īack in early March, OWC made a splash by announcing the very first flash storage upgrade solution the MacBook Pro as far back as the Late-2013 product cycle, and the MacBook Air, as far back as the Mid-2013 product cycle. With only 256 GB of flash storage, space has been hard to come by since day one. The biggest bottleneck that I’ve encountered with this computer is its storage capabilities, and that’s something I’ve been trying to deal with since the day I purchased it. For example, with Final Cut Pro X, it’s not the fastest machine in the world (it lacks dedicated graphics), but it’s still plenty competent when it comes to editing and exporting 4K videos. However, I find that this machine, an i7-powered rig with 16GB of RAM, is still plenty powerful for the applications that I run on a day-to-day basis. As an owner of a Late 2013 MacBook Pro with Retina Display, it’s slowly beginning to show its age.
