I am busy upgrading my early 2015 MBA, bought in 2017 with a new 280 GB or 500 GB m2 NVME SSD using a Sintech adapter and was checking for compatibility. However, when checking the Hardware definitions in my MBA, I am getting confused (again).
I was under the impression that everything now is using NVMe. However, when looking in Hardware under
- NVMExpress, it mentions "This computer doesn't contain any NVMEpress devices".
- PCI, it mentions "This computer does not contain any PCI cards or devices"
- SATA, it mentions a lot of info.
Serial-ATA device tree:
Apple SSD SM0128 GB
Apple SSD Controller:
Vendor: APPLE
Product: SSD Controller
Physical Interconnect: PCI ?????
Link width: x4
Link speed: 5.0 GT/s
Description: AHCI Version 1.30 supported
I though that definitely in the early 2015 and later macbooks, everything was NVMe. So why does it mentions a PCI SATA? or is this just Apple's funny way of stating things.
AHCI version 1.30 supported. Does that means it only supports it and actually is using NVMe or it is using AHCI?
