2012 rMBP SSD adapter

[Flint Ironstag]

Hi Guys,

I've seen Sonnet's external SSD enclosure kit, but I'm looking for something a bit less permanent. Does anyone know if this device at Fry's:

Will accommodate the SSD from a 2012, 15" rMBP?

Thanks in advance.

BYTECC 3-IN-1 USB 2.0 TO STANDARD SATA, SLIM & MICRO SATA ADAPTER, WITH OTB (One Touch Backup) - BT370

No, the SSD of the rMBP is a custom plug, so you will need one of this to make it work: (will convert the custom plug to a Sata port):

They sell the card for about $18 at Ebay:

Thank you very much

Was hoping to pick up something locally this weekend, but looks like I'll need to order this.

Thanks again.
