Adapter for MBP Mid-2015 SSD

[mw2299]

Hi guys,

I've been lurking on the forum for a while getting answers for things. This time I've searched here and other places but no luck.

I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015). It has a 256 GB, PCIe-based Flash drive inside it. The machine has died and I need to extract the data from the drive. I need an adapter that can convert the drive into SATA or anything else that I could plug into another machine directly...

The model of the drive is a Samsung MZ-JPV2560/0A4. The number on the reverse side of the drive is S4LN058A01-8030. It's a 11+14 pin drive. I can't find an adapter anywhere!

Any help would be appreciated.

Matthew

You generally can't convert a true PCIe SSD to SATA like that. They don't speak the same language. I think I did once see a USB adapter for this SSD, but they're hard to find. You'll probably have to use a PCIe slot adapter such as this to extract the data: http://www.microsatacables.com/2013-2015-macbook-pro-air-ssd-to-pci-e-4x-adapter
