Fits securely in Mac Pro 2.5 drive bay

This product was needed when I added a 2.5 SSD to my 2010 Mac Pro 5.1. The SSD fit perfectly in the cart with no issues and slid easily into one of my drive bays. It also complemented the PCIe SSD that resides on the motherboard, which is the primary boot drive for the Mac Pro. Mount Pro's drive sleds gave the SSD a more secure function to work in the drive bay as backup storage than some people would stick them in the drive bays. In the future I plan to order another sled for my 2009 Mac Pro…

Pros
  • Hard Drive Enclosure

Don't buy Cosair Bracket for Mac!

The OWC bracket is ideal for installing SSD cards in your MacPro Tower. I have a mid 2010 "cheese grater" and they fit perfectly. I actually bought 3. I accidentally bought the cosair CSSD-BRKT2 mount and it doesn't work with Mac! Don't be an idiot like me. I figured I could use the Cosair mount and attach it to the silver shuttle that already comes with the Mac. Will not work. The Corsair mount attaches to the Mac's silver sled, but doesn't line up properly. I even tried adding more…

Perfect SSD solution for 2010 Apple Mac Pro

I love my 2010 MAC PRO and don't want it to die. To me, the new Mac Pros, while impressive, are way behind the mark in terms of ROI. As such, I continue to rely on my 2010 MAC Pro for my day-to-day computing needs (I use Mojave and Windows 10, each on their own drive. Windows installs raw, no bootcamp). I wanted and needed to make the switch to using SSDs, so I bought a pair of 2.5" OWC sleds. They work great! They are well made and easy to assemble. I now have 1TB drives running both operating

Pros
  • Electronics

Great replacement drive bay!

The night was cold and rainy. Rain drummed against the windows, hail became more and more inevitable, while lightning crackled in the sky. I laughed my head off as I lifted the side of my beleaguered 2010 Mac Pro to see the innards, ready for life but not quite there yet. It's powered off, ports open, and a gaping hole where a new brain (Samsung SSD) should be installed soon. I giggled as another bolt of lightning swept across the sky and a wave of energy swept through the area. "Not yet!" I…
