First Mac compatible PCIe SSD

Earlier this year, OWC announce their very first PCIe based SSD drive. It’s Mac Pro owners dream come true. There’re very little info given. But from the photo we can tell that it’s using standard MacBook Air 2010/2011 blade SSD. Which is a great news. That’s mean we could re-use redundant MacBook Air SSD after upgrade. On the blog report, one could configure the drive from 60GB up to 2TB. Which mean you can use a smallest single blade SSD in 64GB or up to 4 512GB blade SSD (note: actual space should be smaller due to data protection reservation, hence it mention 60GB instead 64GB).

Theoretically, PCIe 2.0 x4 transfer limit is 2GB/s (found on 2010 Mac Pro) vs 600MB/s on SATAIII (Found on all 2011 Macs).

Recently, OWC put up a banner on their SSD section. Featured a very different looking card:
