Can we install an sdxc card inside a MacBook Pro Retina 13"?

[samo350]

Hello,

I want to extend my macbook storage by a 128GB SDXC card but the problem with macbook is that the card exceeds the body and can't let it permanently on it, so i was thinking if it's possible to connect the sd card internally on macbook with some wires (9 for sd card) without welding so I can change it if I want without loosing warranty.

If someone think thats it possible and can help with some information it will be very cool.

Thanks a lot

Maybe the NiftyDrive can help?

And why was your thread titled "samy 1 Asked 6 minutes ago Can we install an sdxc card inside a MacBook Pro?"? Did you put that "samy 1 Asked 6 minutes ago" in there?

I can't use nifty for 2 reason:
There is no nifty minidrive for my macbook.
128GB microSD don't exist in stores Know.

For the title it was just an error

Thanks for helping

You might be able to modify a 128GB SDXC card so it'll fit without sticking out. There is a chance you could damage the SDXC card while modifying it and you would definitely void your warranty on the card.

I don't know if the sd card is completely or just half full with memory and electronic circuit and even if I do that it will exceeds, and also I can't risk of damaging a +100€ SDcard

But you are willing to risk damaging a 1700€ notebook.

128GB SDXC, even the fastest UHS-I class, peaks at 80 MB/sec for read and 40 MB/sec for write (vs. 400 MB/sec. for internal flash storage). I think you are better off saving money for OWC's flash storage replacement.

But for my music library, and my photos it will be enough
