The Sintech M.2 NGFF NVMe SSD Card is great quality adapter, that was easy to install. The best thing about this adapter is the included screw and screwdriver. The screw does a good job of holding the SSD in place. This fit nicely in a Mac Mini, took minutes to install.

I happened to come across this while looking at SSD drives for my late 2014 model Mac-mini. Like most others, I found the computer had become nearly useless due to always having the spinning color wheel. I really had a hard time bringing myself to purchase a new Mac-mini since it would have cost >$1k. I really dont need much out of this desktop so thought maybe replacing the 1TB HDD with an SSD drive could help. The other problem though is I didnt want to replace it with something smaller so was looking at >=1TB SSD drives. Those arent terribly expensive, but still seemed a gamble since I wasnt sure that was really going to fix it.

This card coupled with a 500 GB Samsung 970 EVO (not Plus) has transformed my 1 TB HDD-only 2014 Mac Mini from a sluggish pain to use into a computer I really enjoy using. Installation was very easy. Make sure you have the special T6 Torx screwdriver with the hole in the middle of the driver head to remove the screws from the bottom plate on the Mini. The two tiny screws included with the card worked perfectly, one to mount the card to the Mini once the card is socketed and one to hold the SSD in the card. MacOS Catalina recognized the SSD immediately so I erased it and formatted Mac OS Extended, then rebooted into Recovery Mode, and followed Apple’s instructions to “unsplit” a Fusion drive so the existing HDD and new SSD work as a single 1.5 TB Fusion drive. Super easy, but you can also keep the drives separate. This card is the single best upgrade available for the HDD-only 2014 Mac Mini.

This was a good product that was very easy to install.

Exactly as described. Worked for my late 2014 Mac mini. Installation was a breeze. I used western digital black series wds100t2x0c model and had no issues with the latest Mac OS Catalina.
