Review on ๐Ÿ’พ Enhance MacBook Pro Retina 13" Storage with BASEQI Aluminum microSD Adapter by Russell Robertson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fits fully in an Early 2015 Macbook Pro Retina

I'm using it with an early 2015 13" Macbook Pro Retina and have it in a 128" Sandisk Evo+ micro SD card GB plugged. Considering the Jetdrive Lite, but at almost the same price, I decided to buy this and a separate micro SD card as it would allow me to carry extra SD cards on the go and use them with this adapter - which is the Jetdrive Lite all in one so you can't eject the memory card from the adapter. Of course, this adapter is designed to stay in place and not snap in and out, but at least I have the ability to use it with more than one micro SD, and I would. I don't get this option with Jetdrive. It works like a charm! After inserting the micro sd card into the adapter and then the adapter into the macbook, it worked exactly as intended and it is completely flush with the side of the macbook, I have a great for music and e-book Libraries taking up too much space on the internal 128GB drive (the lesson I learned here was that next time I'll shell out the extra money and buy a Macbook with a larger SSD because 128GB comes with it tend your limited time continues). I moved my music and e-book files to the micro SD card and set up iTunes and caliber to show the micro SD card and not the internal hard drive. the need to carry an external hard drive. I am very satisfied with the result and would buy it again at any time. An advice. Don't skimp on the micro SD card. Buy a card with high read/write speeds. If you're patient, you can usually find it on sale at Best Buy or Revain. The Evo+ normally costs $110, and I found one for $49 (and in fact, Samsung released the 128GB Pro version the day after I ordered it). ). For less than $75 I was able to free up a lot of internal hard drive space, have a lot of extra capacity on the micro SD, I no longer have to carry an external hard drive in my bag, and because this adapter sits flush with the side of the Macbook it doesn't stick on Sleeves hang where I keep my laptop. I would highly recommend it to others.

Pros
  • There's a lot inside
Cons
  • Available in white only
