MacBook SSD upgrade kit

This kit adds 240GB of usable space to compatible MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models from 2013 to 2017. The internal NVMe drive connects through a PCIe 3.1 x4 interface and is designed for macOS 10.13 and later. An external USB 3.0 enclosure is included to simplify data migration from the original drive.

Low power draw and cool running

The Aura N2 consumes less power and runs cooler than earlier SSD designs, helping preserve battery life during everyday workloads. Reduced heat output also keeps fan activity low, so the system stays quiet under normal use.

Migration enclosure included

The supplied USB 3.0 Express enclosure turns the removed stock drive into an external backup or storage device. This all-in-one approach means no extra adapters or docks are required to move files and reinstall the operating system.
