Performance for all older Mac models is limited to 1200/1400 MB/s Read/Write with PCIe 2.0 x2 lanes and 2800MB/s Read/Write on PCIe 3.0 x4 lanes. This is not a limitation of the SSD, it is due to PCIe lanes wiring on the logic board. Only Macs with PCIe 3.0 x4 lanes can utilise higher speed up to 2800MB/s.

Flexx LX300 upgrade
I purchase Flexx's LX300 SSD to upgrade the storage in my 2015 15" Macbook Pro from 500Gb to 1Tb. The SSD came very well packaged with all the tools needed. Removal of the old SSD and installation of the new one was very simple and took around 15 minutes. The new SSD performs exactly the same as the original Apple one, but with double the space.

Quality product from a reliable company

Flexx LX300 1TB NVME SSD
The card arrived quickly and the install was easy using the links on Flexx and guide on iFixit. As per the guides I uploaded macOS Big Sur from the Mac recovery utility and reloaded from a Time Machine backup and it all went smoothly. Now my SSD has so much empty space I'm sure I can hear an echo from inside my Mac. In summary: great service, great product, no-brainer.

Exactly what I expected
The Flash SSD from my 2013 MBAir died, and this is a perfect replacement for it. The details of which laptops it corresponds to made it very easy to find the appropriate SSD and all I was left to do was to chose the amount of memory. The two screwdrivers make this set perfectly self-contained for changing SSD. Perfectly was I was looking for!

LX300 1TB NVME SSD Kit for MacBook Pro, Air and iMac from late 2013 on
MACBOOK Pro early 2015. swapped out the original 256MB SSD. Easy to fit. The online install of MAC OS couldn't see the new drive. So I made a bootable install external HDD. New drive formatted, MACOS installed. Recovered my data with time machine. Installed bootcamp. So I now have a dual boot MAC OS/WIN 10 machine. I've not noticed any change in performance or power consumption just 1TB of storage. Good price too!
