- Compatible with any laptop or PC with a compatible 2.5-inch SATA connection.
- Special Note: For specific 2009 iMacs, 2008-2010 MacBooks, 2008-2009 MacBook Pros, and 2009 Mac mini models, we highly recommend using a SATA 2.0 (3Gb/s) SSD, such as the OWC Mercury Electra 3G.
- Recommended Models:
- iMac Models: iMac9,1, iMac10,1, iMac11,1
- MacBook Models: MacBook5,1, MacBook5,2, MacBook6,1, MacBook7,1
- MacBook Pro Models: MacBookPro5,1, MacBookPro5,2, MacBookPro5,3, MacBookPro5,4, MacBookPro5,5
- Mac mini Models: Macmini3,1, Macmini4,1
- Performance Note: While a 6G SSD functions in these models, it will only operate at SATA Revision 1.0 (1.5Gb/s, 150MB/s) speeds, rather than the full SATA Revision 2.0 (3.0Gb/s, 300MB/s) speed these computers can support. The OWC Mercury Electra 3G SSD is the recommended upgrade to achieve optimal performance.
- Compatibility: The OWC SSD Mercury Electra 6G Model is compatible with almost any Mac or PC model with a Serial ATA connection (SATA, SATA 2.0, or SATA 3.0). Compatible MacBook Pro models include:
