- 3 Year OWC Limited Warranty
Give your Mac Pro tower or PC a 6G performance boost
The OWC 6G SSD and OWC Accelsior S DIY bundle is the simple solution to add a high speed SATA 6G drive to PCs or silver Mac Pro towers otherwise restricted to 3G architecture. Combined with the high-performance Mercury Electra SSD, Accelsior S brings cutting edge 6G performance to your SATA 3G system.
High-performance storage
Faster startup and quick response times with over 500MB/s peak sustained data rates, the Mercury Electra 6G SSD line delivers unbeatable performance with 100X greater data protection than enterprise class Hard Disk Drives, and RAISE technology for RAID like data protection and reliability.
Internal storage expansion at lightning speed
With more than 500 MB/s of throughput, the Accelsior S dual-lane PCIe 2.0 card delivers flexible storage expansion – with a speed boost – to your Mac or PC. Accelsior S is the perfect complement to OWC's Mercury family of high-performance SSD's, allowing up to an extra 1TB of fast storage expansion.
With no drivers or extra software needed, upgrading your Mac Pro or PC tower with a Mercury Extreme Pro and Accelsior S is a breeze.
Includes
- (1) OWC Acceslsior S 2.5-inch SATA 6G to PCIe Adapter Card
- (1) OWC Mercury Electra 6G Solid-State Drive
- (1) Quick Start Guide for OWC Accelsior S
- 3 Year OWC Limited Warranty
Notes:
- Mac Pro (2009-2010) - Installing Accelsior S into any open x4 or x16 PCIe 2.0 slot will deliver full throughput.
2. Mac Pro (2008) - These models have two (2) PCIe 2.0 x16 slots, which enable Acceslsior S to deliver full throughput. Installing Accelsior S in of the two (2) PCIe 1.0 x4 slots will result in Accelsior S being addressed as a first generation one-lane card and will limit performance to 190-200MB/s real world data rates.
3. Mac Pro (2006 - 2007) - These models have a PCIe 1.0 slot which cannot be configured to address Accelsior S as anything but as a first generation one-lane card, even with the Expansion Utility in OS X. As a result, Accelsior S performance will be limited to 190-200MB/s real world data rates. For maximum performance, we recommend installing a 2.5-inch OWC Mercury Electra 6G SSD in an open Mac Pro drive bay.
4. PC - Use with a PCIe 2.0 x4 slot or better is recommended. Use with a PCIe 1.0 x4 slot will result in reduced performance.

Notes:
- Use of a 2.5-inch SSD in a 3.5-inch drive bay requires an adapter bracket such as the NewerTech AdaptaDrive.
- Use of any SSD in an external enclosure is dependent on the power available from the enclosure. OWC Mercury Electra 6G and Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSDs are engineered for use in any OWC Enclosure that supports 2.5-inch SSDs.
