MacBook SSD upgrade for 2013-2017 models

The THREE COLOUR DOGFISH 256GB NVMe drive replaces the original storage in MacBook Air A1465 and A1466, MacBook Pro A1398 and A1502, iMac A1418 and A1419, Mac Mini A1347 and Mac Pro A1481. It fits the native slot without any adapter. The system must already run macOS 10.13 or later so the firmware recognises the drive.

Sustained PCIe 3.0 throughput with 3D TLC NAND

Sequential reads reach 2200 and writes reach 1800 under continuous load. The PCIe 3.0 x4 interface keeps bandwidth stable during large file transfers or video editing sessions. 3D TLC flash maintains consistent performance without the sharp drops seen in lighter workloads. Operating temperature range of 0 to 70 °C supports extended use inside the original chassis.

Apple-specific pinout and firmware-ready design

The drive uses the exact connector layout required by the listed Mac models, so installation is a direct swap. MTBF is rated at 10000 and data retention exceeds 20 years at 25 °C. Power draw stays within the 3.3 V ±5 % rail supplied by the host. No extra cables, brackets or firmware tools are needed once the OS requirement is met.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 256GB NVMe drive draw during all-day use?

The SSD operates on a 3.3V±5% supply and is rated for continuous operation between 0°C and 70°C with an MTBF of 1 million hours.

What must my Mac already be running before I install this NVMe SSD?

Your Mac must be upgraded to macOS 10.13 High Sierra or later so the required EFI firmware update is present; otherwise the drive will not be recognised.

Will this NVMe SSD work in my 2013 MacBook Pro A1398 without any adapter?

Yes, the drive uses the native PCIe 3.0 x4 interface found in the A1398 and other listed models, so no adapter is needed.
