When I get the 2015 I'll just drop the 2TB I have in to it
If you have a 2010 I think it's a SATA drive and the newer faster ones are PCIe. You can check right now by looking in the system report of your computer. You'll be able to use as a thunderbolt drive though. If OWC makes one of the case extensions for 2013-2015 models then you be able to put it in that too.
Guess I can't use it in the 2015 what PCIe would you get with maximum capacity?
Thanks for saving me $$$
I think the max capacity they made in 2015 model was 1TB I saw some on ebay going for around $2k for lightly used the other day.
Ouch
To be clear I can't use a SATA in the 2015 models?
I really need an internal 2TB+, 2K for only a 1TB is nuts
Thanks
Then I'd look at 2016's or buy a 2015 with 256GB and swap it to a 2TB Apple SSD. I haven't done that though so I don't know how hard it is. OWC sells Apple compatible more affordable PCIe upgrade kits I'm not sure if they have a 2TB model yet they make them on their own.
It really sounds like you're better off get a 2016/2017 model with 2TB and then waiting for the case expansion to come out to me.
