We just recently got certified and released our Mac Pro 2013 drive, which means that the connection has been approved, we just need to physically compress the drive to make it fit into the laptops that are needing it, so I would expect sometime within the first half of this year, but we cannot guarantee for sure. After the late 2012/ early 2013 model was released, Apple changed the connection and it has been a pretty difficult time recreating it. We had a tiny set back in getting our replacement PCIe connection certified for the drives that we wanted to create. One moment please, while I look into your question. You are now chatting with OWC Ellyse T (Customer Service Representative) - Sales and Customer Service (24/7) Your Question: Can you shed some light on when the SSD upgrade will be available for the mid 2014 rMBP? I read that it was supposed to be ready in 2014 but I cant find it on your site. I have a long evening of migration, boot camping, and fiddling ahead of me. pre mobo failure) that I'd have the option to upgrade to this machine for $1,200 I probably would have jumped at it.Īnd this is the first time that I've ever had a top-of-the-line computer, car, spouse, whatever, so it's nice to feel spoiled for once! As it turned out I was down for the week anyway.Īh well, it's not so bad. I was planning on spending $700 for a third-party TB upgrade anyway, so the BTO really should have been a no-brainer, but I didn't want the downtime, and I wanted to walk out of the store with a working solution.
Looking backwards a week, I could have saved $400 by taking the $2,000 credit for the swap and BTOing a 2.2 GHz model with integrated GPU and the 1 TB of SSD for $2,800. This also gave me an extra 600 MHz and a discrete GPU that I don't need, but now I have it.
I went back to the Manhattan Beach Apple Store and convinced the cute store manager to allow me the privilege of paying $1,200 to swap my 256 GB model for the 1 TB model.
Well, after 4 days of fighting with trying to cram a 500 GB profile into 250 GB of space, I gave up.
