Installed Windows To Go on an external SSD, then copied the Boot Camp drivers onto the drive. We installed the latest version of Big Sur, then downloaded the Windows 10 iso from the Microsoft website. You can update the firmware on the P31 Gold using a MacBook Pro. Hoping the SK Hynix P31 Gold can offer the same stability. A few hundred Macs have been sold with the Sabrent Rocket SSD with 0 issues in the past 12 months. We switched from the Sabrent Rocket (dark blue) 1TB NVME SSD to using the SK Hynix P31 Gold. I know the 970 EVO Plus will do this, but any other 2tb suggestions that will push the 3000 MB/s with less power and heat would be appreciated I am currently disabled and so my laptop sits plugged in almost all the time at a desk and I would benefit from the 8 GT/s link speed of this model, so I'm looking for a high power NVMe that will handle videos with aplomb. But first I realized I need to repaste the 6 yr old machine for better thermals.Ĭurrent firmware is 427.140.8.0.0 and I'm on Mojave 10.14.6 Plan is to update my 11,5 MacBook Pro from a 512gb original to a 2tb NVMe drive. Ordered the Sintech short adapter when I started about a week and a half ago. On that note, caffeine is a great little utility for testing if you don't want your machine to go to sleep, haven't seen it mentioned.

I've also learned a lot and as a result, found an awesome group of new utilities I didn't have before. Great support, thank the major contributors.
