PCI-e SSD question

[maccer99]

Can you replace the SSD chip that is inside the Accelsior E2, or will it only work with the one it came with? It looks like there's 2 plastic lock pieces drilled into one of the chips connecting the main board, maybe preventing it from being removed.

Email owc they generally answer quickly

Was just wondering if this is a typical user swappable piece that people do, if not I won't meddle with it.

If it is possible, you don't get more speed. This card is limited to PCIe x2 ~800 MB/s

if you're talking about the replacing the SSD "blades", YES, you can replace them, at least through OWC.
They offer an upgrade/trade-in program here

It should take other brands of PCI-e sticks, but not sure if OWC's firmware would work with them.
