I have a 2010 Mac Pro. Do I need to buy a special adapter to install this, like Icy Dock, or will I be able to install it without a special adapter?

You won't need an adapter - I didn't. Don't forget to go to iFixit for the upgrade instructions.

Do what I did and contact Crucial directly. They were extremely helpful one on one via the cell phone. They are not bashful about telling what will or will not work with their products in that one on one setting.

Hi Nick, there is no special adapter required. If you look at the iFixit instructions, there are four posts you remove from the old drive and put them in the M500. This is what I did.

No special adapters needed. I have the 480gb version of this drive in my mid-2010 Macbook Pro 15"

Hi Ben. The Thunderbolt Express Dock is only compatible with Thunderbolt enabled Mac computer version 10.8.4 or higher. There's no information as of the moment about the thunderbolt dock being compatible with ESXi. For more info, check out this link: http://www.belkin.com/us/support-article?articleNum=27348

All of the newer apple products need an adapter to work in this dock. The dock has the older style connector

Can I plug a thunderbolt display into it with Mac Pro early 2008 (MacPro3.1)?

No. To the best of my knowledge, the drivers are only available in OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and later, where they are included natively as part of the OS updates. For Snow Leopard and Lion you will need a solution that includes third party drivers specifically for your operating system. I believe Highpoint, Caldigit, and LaCie make USB 3.0 solutions for Mac Pro on older OS X versions, but check before buying.

Use the power supply for the MacBook Pro. Yes, two outlets to power the computer and the Dock. Good luck!

Correct, you still need a Magsafe connector. There is no dock on the market that does this as well other then the Apple Thunderbolt display which is still 2 cables.

In any mac pro work. The problem is that Lion does not have native support for chipset cool and if there is no driver.

Greetings: I installed on a Mac Pro (1,1) with Lion 10.7.5. It fried my computer. I would leave it alone, especially after I spoke with a Mac repair type in Oklahoma City. Sorry.

That sounds like a fantastic question to ask the folks at Apple who don't make it easy on folks to do this stuff. I no longer have a Mac pro... so can't help sorry.

Yeah, that's what I did. I bought this along with an LG Blu-ray reader/writer and use them both with my mac. I'm using a Mac Pro running 10.6.8 and they both work fine for me. Didn't even have to install any software for it. I just plugged it up and it was recognized automatically. I use it with Encore to burn my BD projects.

Great product! Purchased it for my Mac Pro 2010 model. Works well, no problems.

I believe your older Mac came with the installation already installed. So you should be good to go , just plug and use. Hope this helps you .

The card is just inserted into one of your PCIe slots with the SSD drive and your all set. No extra cable required. I was not able to bootcamp mine. so i used a different method. I bought an adapter that accepts the SSD and allows it to mount onto the slide of the Mac Pro drive. I did not see any difference in speed. The Mac Pro will then respond much better, especially if you intend to bootcamp for windows. Good luck

Hi Cleo, The neighbor dropped off their Mac Book Pro and yes it did work just fine. I don't use Mac's but I was able to see the little blue indicator on the adapter and open photos on the SD card inserted into the adapter just fine. Maybe that's testament as to how easy Mac's are to use? I couldn't figure out how to find the OS version however and my neighbor had gone out. If you absolutely need to know the OS version I'll find out for you. Let me know.Regards,Charlie

You may download an installation program on their website, on support area. There is a driver for mac.
