OWC Accelsior S PCIe Adapter for 2.5-inch SATA 6G Expansion Card Upgrade Bundle. Mercury Extreme Pro 6G and Accelsior S.
An SSD for your PCIe Slot. Give your Mac Pro tower or PC a 6G performance boost. The OWC 6G SSD and OWC Accelsior S DIY bundle is the simple solution to add a high speed SATA 6G drive to PCs or silver Mac Pro towers otherwise restricted to 3G architecture. Combined with the high-performance Mercury Electra SSD, Accelsior S brings cutting edge 6G performance to your SATA 3G system. With sustained reads up to 559MB/s and writes up to 527MB/s, up to 100X greater data protection than enterprise class Hard Disk Drives, and RAISE technology for RAID like data protection and reliability, the OWC Mercury Extreme SSD line delivers unbeatable performance.Internal storage expansion at lightning speed. With more than 500 MB/s of throughput, the Accelsior S dual-lane PCIe 2.0 card delivers flexible storage expansion - with a speed boost - to your Mac or PC. Accelsior S is the perfect complement to OWCs Mercury family of high-performance SSDs, allowing up to an extra 1TB of fast storage expansion.
With no drivers or extra software needed, upgrading your Mac Pro or PC tower with a Mercury Extreme Pro and Accelsior S is a breeze. OWC Accelsior S is compatible with. Mac Pro Mid 2010 Quad-CoreModel ID. Mac Pro 4-Core Model ID. MacPro5,1 MacPro4,1 MacPro3,1 MacPro1,1.
Mac Pro 6-Core Model ID. Mac Pro 8-Core Model ID. MacPro5,1 MacPro4,1 MacPro3,1 MacPro2,1. Mac Pro 12-Core Model ID.
Xserve Quad-Core Model ID: Xserve3,1. Xserve 8-Core Model ID: Xserve3,1.
Compatible with Intel / AMD Process based PCs capable with the specifications listed above. Compatible with PCIe expandable servers with the specifications listed above. HP DL 380 G7, HP DL 380 G8, Dell PowerEdge R620, Dell PowerEdge T620. When used together, the Accelsior S and the Mercury Extreme Pro1.0TB 6G SSD are compatible with the MacPro4,1 series, MacPro5,1 series, MacPro3,1 series, MacPro2,1series, and MacPro1,1 series. PCIe 2.0 x4 slot or better is required.
Use of a PCIe 1.0 x4 slot will reduce performance. Installing Accelsior S into any open x4 or x16 PCIe 2.0 slot will deliver full throughput. These models have two x16 PCIe 2.0 slots, which enable Acceslsior S to deliver full throughput.
Installing Accelsior S into of the two x4 PCIe 1.0 slots will result in Accelsior S being addressed as a gen one, one-lane card with performance limited to real world 190-200MB/s data rates. These models utilize PCIe 1.0 slot which cannot be configured (even with the Expansion Utility in OS X) to address Accelsior S as anything but as a first generation one-lane card. As a result, Accelsior S performance will be limited to 190-200MB/s data rates. If maximum data rate speedis desired, we recommend the installation of a 2.5 OWC Mercury SSD in an open Mac Pro drive bay. 1.0TB Extreme Pro 6G SSD Specifications. Tier 1 Asynchronous MLC NAND Flash.
