What is the port of the blade SSD ?

Hi.

I want to upgrade my iMac with a 500g SSD and I want to know what type of SSD port is ( like SATA, NVme). The original SSD is too expensive so that I‘m wondering if I can Install another brand of SSD.

I don’t have a simple answer as it depends on what your system came with!

  • If you had bought your system with a HDD only you only have a SATA port (the PCI interface may not be populated on the logic board! The low end early 2013 system did not offer it

Give this a good read The Ultimate Guide to Apple’s Proprietary SSDs for deeper details.

OK, so adding or replacing the SATA HDD with 2.5” SSD would be the easiest direction and likely the cheaper. But that will require loosing the HDD and your stuff on it unless you’ve made a TimeMachine backup.

If you want to gain the most I would replace the custom Apple mSATA blade SSD with the OWC Aura Pro X2 unlike the Apple SSD which was mSATA the OWC SSD is a NVMe – PCIe 3.1 x4 drive (only able to use two lanes) which will give you much more performance as the boot drive! It will require you are running High Sierra or newer.
