Ouch! Apple just bit us hard on this one!. MBA Rev B=Sata/LIF <> Micro Sata!
Must be a bad "worm" in the batch of engineers. Imagine if Apple uses a non-standard connector in their 2.5 inch drives and contracted only Samsung and Toshiba to manufacture drives & SSDs with that type of connector!. Is that a can of worms or what ??. :mad:

Yeah, it's disappointing. I am not sure why they did it this way considering that they had better stuff before.

It's brilliant. They'd rather you buy Rev C than upgrade and hang onto your Rev B for a bit longer. :rolleyes:
