I own a MacPro (Early 2009) and am looking to add storage. The ones I currently have installed have a Apple logo on them - is there a difference?

yes the Apple Logo makes them cost more :) (Cheap joke) Actually this drive will work perfectly.

I don't think it matters. They just slap an apple logo on them for internal use.

I personally can't say one way or another. I put on in a 2009 MAC PRO Desktop and it works great. It somewhat of a bugger to get connected and I certainly wouldn't recommend for anyone without a good strong tech background. It is worth the effort!

I use this for mac. I will say that it can be frustrating as a Time Machine Drive - as it stalls if the machine is sleeping. But in general, it's a great solution for extra storage.LaCie started as a manufacturer that supported Mac, and as far as I know they are committed to Apple.

Yes. Bear in mind that the pre-2010 iMac models do not have an add-on option if I recall correctly, meaning that you will have to completely replace your previous HDD (or SSD if you had previously replaced it). If you are confused about the installation process, here is a great link that gives an overview of the steps necessary: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=842548 Likewise, it never hurts to check with the manufacturer since they are the ones who give you your warranty on products. Check with Mac and/or Crucial tech support if you have any specific technical questions that you may have.

I don't think so. Your Mac Pro requires ECC memory DDR2 is my understanding. This misses the mark on all counts. To be sure see this site. http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/mac_pro/faq/mac-pro-how-to-upgrade-memory-what-type-ram.html

I have absolutely no idea how to determine this, sorry! I can only stress that you make sure that it fits, because it does not fit flush with my late-2013 Retina MacBookPro so I do not leave it in there. I benchmarked the card with Blackmagic Disk Speed Test and its nowhere near the speed of the internal Apple SSD drive so its really just extra space for stuff I don't always need, like an archive for app install files (for those that aren't backed up in the App Store), or other files you don't want to eat up your local disk space (read: pr0n). Hope this info helps! :-)

They might, but the 1,1 and 2,1 have a slower memory speed than later versions, I bought these for a 1,1 because the speed matched. Check the MHz of the RAM in your MacPro now, then match that to get the best performance, its likely these: Komputerbay 16GB (4x 4GB) DDR2 PC2-6400F 800MHz ECC Fully Buffered FB-DIMM (240 PIN) 16 GB w/ MAC Heatspreaders RAM Memory APPLE MAC PRO 2008 3,1 (2.8 3.0 3.2) (DDR2 800MHz PC2-6400 ECC FBDIMM)

The 2006 MacPro doesn't support the full speed of an SSD, because of its PCI bus spec. Those Macs were PCI 1.0 I think. So you'd be looking at SATA I speeds at best. If you were using a very fast HDD, an upgrade to a SSD might not give you that big a boost. It certainly won't give you the max speed specs listed for the SSD.

Those are actually a pair of 4GB modules. If you you buy two of them, you would get the 16GB you aiming at. The only downside is that, since mid-2010 iMacs have only 4 memory slots, you'll have to ditch the two 2GB modules that originally came with your machine. You may want to consider keeping the original modules and add only one pair of 4GB modules, to a total of 12GB, if it's not crucial for you to reach 16GB.

Installed in my 2008 Mac Pro with OS X 10.10.5 (Yosemite). Transfer speeds are definitely higher when using to clone my startup (SSD) to another SSD. Instead of ~3 hours using USB 2, this took less than 34 minutes. The device does NOT work when I boot into OS X 10.5.8, and it disconnects my device when the Mac Pro goes to sleep ("Disk Not Ejected Properly"). But that's not a problem since no writing is being done while it is asleep.

I want to install it on a macbookpro mid 2009 13" , what size it is yours? There is any difference if you are talking about 15".? Thanks

I installed the card in my 2008 Mac Pro and have several external drives attached. Seems to work OK *except* that every time I wake my Mac from sleep, I get a warning that my external drives were not ejected properly. Anyone know how to fix this?

Yes this is the most recent Mac Pro available. The next gen Mac pro isn't out quite yet.

Btw. Mine is a pro, not a plain MacBook. I don't know if that makes a difference

I can confirm the Sabrent BK-HDDF will NOT work in a Mac Pro. I just tried: the bracket does fit the drive bay sled(s) (not too big) but the SATA/PWR connectors do not align. FYI - mine is a Mac Pro 4,1 (2009) model, though I believe the form factors for drive bays are the same 2006-2012 models.

It didn't work on my older Mac Pro from 2009. The connectors don't line up vertically or horizontally. I'm not sure if it's the exact same product, but I can tell by the picture that it has the drive centered, so it definitely wouldn't work in my computer. It would have to be offset to compensate for the smaller drive. I can't say for sure it won't work for you if your Mac is newer, but it seems unlikely if they still have the slide in trays. You would need something designed specifically for a Mac Pro to line up the drive connectors. Unfortunately, the standard has the connectors on one side of the drive so the smaller size messes everything up. It didn't work on my older Mac Pro from 2009.
