DIVERSOS DE HARDWAREFusion M.2 NVMe SSD
Technical Notes - You may install fewer than four SSDs now and add more later without needing to reformat existing ones. Only 2280 (80mm—the most common length) length M.2 SSDs and with memory components on only the top side are supported. M.2 SSDs longer or shorter than 80mm don’t fit. M.2 SSDs with components on both sides don’t fit. - SSDs attached to the Sonnet card appear to macOS as external drives. Booting from an external SSD in macOS 10.14.6+ requires enabling external booting in the security preferences that can be set in a command-R (recovery system) boot. - This product’s performance will vary based on the type and number of SSDs used, the CPU speed (for RAID), and the PCIe architecture. - Use of Samsung SSDs in computers running Windows requires the download and installation of NVMe drivers from Samsung; Microsoft Windows inbox NVMe drivers do not support Samsung SSDs. - Performance in a Thunderbolt 3 PCIe expansion chassis limited by maximum Thunderbolt 3 PCIe bandwidth of 2800 MB/s. PCIe bandwidth of Thunderbolt 2 is about half of Thunderbolt 3. - Mac Pro 5,1 requires a recommended Metal-compatible graphics card for macOS 10.4 (Mojave) and later. - macOS 10.14.6+ supports both 512 and 4k block size SSDs, but macOS 10.13.6 supports only 4k block size SSDs. Today, most SSDs are shipped from the factory programmed with a 4k block size. If your SSDs are programmed with 512 block size, however, and you need to be compatible with macOS 10.13.6, you will need to reprogram your SSDs to a 4k block size. See this tech note for more details. - RAID 5 support under macOS requires third-party software such as SoftRAID, sold separately. |
