Preformatted APFS for macOS 10.13 and later, this Solid State Drive connects to your Mac using a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface. Thanks to an included OWC Envoy Pro enclosure, you'll be able to use your Mac's factory Solid State Drive as an external drive via USB 3.2 Gen 1, with backward compatibility for USB 2.0.

In terms of speed, this drive offers sequential read speeds up to 3335 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 3271 MB/s. Also featured is an MTBF of 1.5 million hours, an endurance (TBW) rating of 1000TB, an Innogrit IG5220 processor, Synchronous Triple-Level Cell (TLC) 3D NAND flash storage, 7% over provisioning ECC recovery, built-in ECC, an access time of less than 0.1 ms, and OS dependent TRIM support.

Please note that prior to installing this drive, your host system must be updated to the latest available OS using Apple's factory SSD. Also, the OWC Envoy Pro enclosure is specifically designed for use ONLY with the factory Solid State Drive installed in select Apple Macintosh computers. Do NOT attempt to install or use Aura N, Aura N2, Aura Pro X, Aura Pro X2, Aura Pro X2 Gen4, or Aura SSDs in the Envoy Pro as you may damage the OWC drive, the enclosure, or both, and such damage is not covered under warranty. Lastly, the OWC Envoy Pro enclosure is not currently compatible with Apple PCIe NVMe drives.

Your Mac with More Space and Twice as Fast

A Mac's small stock Solid State Drive can fill up quickly—especially with photos, video files, games, and even your email. When storage gets tight, there's no reason to ditch the Mac you know and love. The Aura Pro X2 provides up to 16x more capacity, and the speed to keep up with your imagination. With that capacity and power, you can keep your Mac running optimally for years—all at a fraction of the cost of buying new.

Blazing Fast and Super Cool

The Aura Pro X2 combines speed, stamina, and efficiency that will change the way you experience your Mac. With read speeds reaching 2989 MB/s and write speeds of 1208 MB/s, the Aura Pro X2 is up to 2x faster than the factory Apple SSD, delivering performance on par with the latest Mac models. Calibrated to use less power and run cooler, Aura Pro X2 SSDs are the best way to upgrade your Mac.

High Performance and High Style

Your upgrade should be a seamless experience. That's why Aura Pro X2 Solid State Drive Upgrade Kits come with an OWC Envoy Pro - a high-performance Solid State Drive enclosure to reimagine your stock drive. When you remove your Mac's original flash SSD, it fits perfectly into the sleek aluminum Envoy Pro. So you can transfer all of your data to your newly installed Aura Pro X2 inside your Mac. Once the file transfer is complete, enjoy reusing your Mac's original flash Solid State Drive as a svelte, fast, and rugged portable USB drive.

Built for Your Mac

The Aura Pro X2 is designed for macOS to take full advantage of the advanced features of APFS (Apple File System), including strong encryption, copy-on-write metadata, space sharing, cloning for files and directories, snapshots, fast directory sizing, atomic safe-save primitives, and improved file system fundamentals. All that adds up to a drive that's built to make your Mac perform at its best.

No Hassles, No Hacks

OWC Aura Pro X2 PCIe-based flash storage upgrades are precisely engineered for your Mac laptop, so you'll never need to compromise your data, or rely on complicated software hacks. Just install, migrate your data, and enjoy the great performance and reliability of OWC flash storage.

7% Over-Provisioning

OWC SSDs perform maintenance tasks in the background that optimize the health, performance, and endurance of your drive. These tasks utilize available unwritten space on the SSD. Aura Pro X2 SSDs reserve 7% of the overall drive capacity as free space to perform these normal maintenance tasks—making your drive a stable, dependable, and safe place to store all of your data.
