SSD upgrade for late 2013 rMBP

[rodrigoluizb]

Hey folks

I'm running out of space in my 13' rMBP, late 2013. As you may know, this MB runs a PCIe SSD, and, until today, i thought there were no options on the market for this upgrade. Today, searching on Plextor website i found this:

This is a PCIe SSD Gen2 x2, and i was thinking if it will possible to upgrade my rMBP with one of this SSD. Is anybody using this SSD in their MB? Is it working?

The M.2 format PCIe SSDs offered by a number of vendors, are using a different physical interface to the Apple OEM PCIe SSDs. If it doesn't say it works with the late 2013 rMBP then it almost certainly doesn't.

The fact that there are official apple pcie SSDs floating around for sale is interesting. Too bad you can't buy them from apple directly.
