Hi everyone, hope you are well. Can anyone recommend a PCIe 2.0 x2 and PCIe 2.0 x4 and adapter if required for imac 2014 and a 2015? Also, will I have to do any weird updates or is it pretty much plugin and boot in recovery, format/install? then in the future just normal updates via Mac OS...

Hi All and thanks in advance for any advice. I've searched the forum and sticky SSD thread but can only find this issue as regards MBPs not Mac Pro. I'm currently running a Mac Pro 4,1 2x 2.26 flashed to a 5,1. I have recently upgraded the machine to Mojave on a PCIe SSD and I am now having...

Hi there, I am planning to upgrade my 4,1 MacPro. I have a question I could not find answers here in the Forum: - when "upgrading" to Mojave and installing Bootrom 144.0.0.0 is it still possible to keep the 10.9. installed and boot on one of the harddrives? I would do a clean install on another...

Hello, This is my first post here and I am hoping someone can answer this for me. I recently bought a Broadcom BCM94360CD w/ Bluetooth 4.0 upgrade kit similar to the OSXWifi kit and the BT 4.2 kit sold on eBay that is from China. The kit I bought includes a Mini PCIe adapter that has the...

Has anybody tried this card? It's based on the ASMedia chipset, which I know is supported. The vendor claims it works. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07M92Z3HM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If this has been addressed before I apologize - I couldn't find it. I have a 4,1 w/ firmware update to 5,1. Running Sierra and Maverick. I did do the 1.4 update to be able to run nvme bootable as I was running High Sierra with an Sapphire Pulse RX580 but moved that setup to another MacPro...

So yesterday I began looking into upgrading my MacPro 5,1 storage and looking a the new 140.0.0.0.0 bootrom firmware that supports native NVMe boot, i took the plunge and bought two 500GB Samsung 970 Evo NVMe M.2 blades and two Vantech M.2 NVMe PCIe x4 Adapters. Why 2 of each? Well, I wanted to...

Hello all, This is another topic that I have been looking into that I have some questions about. I remember that there was a SSD guide somewhere on this forum. But for the life of me, I can't seem to find it. I have some questions about SSDs in Mac pro 2009 and 2006 and I have a few items that...

Hi there, I am currently searching a power-cable to connect a graphics-card with a 8pin power-connector to a Mac Pro. As I learned, the two mini-pcie connectors on the logic board can deliver 75w each. I read a lot of some 2x6pin to 1x8pin cables but cannot find any in German/European stores...

My system is pretty fully loaded with two CalDigit FASTA 6-GU3 Pros connected to 2 internal SSDs internally each as well as connecting to two external docks. This configuration has been in use for 4 years and very stable. After applying the EFI patch the system started becoming unstable. No...
