1TB flash storage on MacBook pro 2014

Hello everyone,
I'm interested in the latest MacBook pro 2014, and planning to get one.
According to the spec on the website, it says MacBook pro 15" could be configured to 1TB flash storage.
Does anybody know what is the brand of the flash storage? Samsung or SanDisk? Or both?
Is its component size same as M.2 2280 or 2260 PCIe SSD?
Can we replace it by our own? I mean, can we buy a M.2 2280 or 2260 PCIe SSD to replace it if it fit?

You then may be risking voiding the warranty.

  • Possibility to extend the flash storage in MacBook Pro 2013

    Hi,
    i´m planing to order the new macbook pro 13" with the PciE Flash. It is selectable from 128Gb up to 256Gb.
    Is this an ordinary and changeable SSD? is it extendable by my self or is it a fixed  and soldered mass storage on the systemboard?
    thx in advance,
    David

  • How to reduce size of other space bar of flash storage on Macbook Pro?

    Hi,
    I am a new customer to the Macbook Pro world. While it is a great computer I have noticed that my storage space is becoming limited. Of 250GB flash storage, 137GB of this is classified as 'Other'. Can someone please advise on what this consists of and how I can reduce this bar, i.e. if there is useless or unused data stored here.
    Kind Regards,
    Kyle.

    The title is rather unfortunate and creates unnecessary problems.  There is much important information in that category, the OSX being one item.  Please read this for a full understanding:

  • Is the "flash" storage in Macbook Pros and Airs upgradable?

    I just watched an OWC video on upgrading SSD on mid 2012 Macbook Pro, is that what they consider "Flash" storage? They only say SSD, so I'm just wondering if I buy 128GB Macbook or Air can I increase it later or is it "built in" and not upgradable?

    SSD = flash memory storage. There are no Apple-supported upgrades for the internal SSD/flash storage in the MacBooks, partly because Apple uses a special connector. OWC has created replacement MacBook SSD/flash drives of their own initiative, and they do work. But they are only available for some models.
    Due to the special Apple design of the flash storage you will not find many options for upgrading. So far only OWC has gone to the trouble of trying to match the Apple specs.
    It is still best to order a MacBook with the amount of storage you need, if available. If you do need an upgrade later, whether you will be able to will depend on whether OWC offers one for the model you have, and there is no guarantee of that. And any such upgrade will not be supported by Apple. But OWC is a good company and I have bought many products from them.

  • My Macbook Pro 2014 ran out of battery while mid-slideshow. Now the slideshow won't skip through photos and I can't figure out why? Macbook Pro 2014 13-inch Intel i5 8GB RAM 128GB flash, iPhoto library is on external HDD

    Macbook Pro 2014
    13-inch
    Intel i5
    8GB RAM
    128GB flash SSD,
    Integrated Graphics
    iPhoto library is on external HDD
    I was in a slideshow, with around 1,911 photos in it. About halfway through, my Macbook ran out of battery. Now when I restarted and charged the Macbook and reopened iPhoto, the slideshow won't advance through photos, and I can't figure out any reason why it would do this.
    I thought it may be corrupted, so I deleted and reinstalled iPhoto library, iPhoto itself, and disconnected and reconnected my external HDD.
    This didn't work, the photos still won't advance.
    I don't know any reason why this would be happening, and there is ample space on my internal drive.
    I'm happy to provide more information if needed!
    Many Thanks,
    James

    Make a few tests, James, to narrow down the problem and find out, if the slideshow is corrupted, your iPhoto Library, or settings in your account.
    To test, if only your slideshow has a problem, create a new slideshow, just for testing. Just use "File > New Slideshow" and add a few photos. Does this slideshow play correctly?
    If the test slideshow does not play either, create a new iPhoto Library. Use the File menu in iPhoto: File > Switch to library > Create New. Import a few photos and create a slideshow.  Does it play?
    If even a new library does not solve the problem, test in a different user account (see this document:  Isolating an issue by using another user account - Apple Support):   
    This process involves creating a new user account, logging in to it, and testing for the issue.
    Create a new standard or admin user account in Users & Groups preferences.
    Use these instructions for OS X Mavericks.
    See these instructions for OS X Mountain Lion.
    See this video, or these instructions for OS X Lion.
    Optional: If you have any specific files you wish to test with, copy (don't move) those items to the /Users/Shared folder in the Finder.
    Log out of your current user account by choosing Log Out from the Apple () menu.
    Log in with the new account you created.
    Attempt to reproduce the issue you were seeing in your regular user account.
    After you have completed testing, log out of the test account by choosing Log Out from the Apple () menu.
    Log in as your regular account.
    After you have completed all testing with the test user account, you may want to delete it. You can delete an account in the Users & Groups pane of System Preferences.
    Note: Prior to deleting a test account, make sure you are completely done with it. If you have files in the Guest User you wish to keep, you should copy them to the /Users/Shared folder .
    If you should find, that slideshows only play in a new user account, post back.

    Uh, iFixit and the manufacturer of the upgradeable SSD Flash Storage for the 2010-2011 MBA would respectfully disagree. Yes, the volatile memory is not upgradeable, but the storage SSD (NAND Flash) is as upgradeable as it gets.

  • Macbook pro 2014 with ASUS PB287Q and SAMSUNG U28D590D

    Hi
    I was wondering if my new macbook pro 15" 2014
    2.5GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7
    16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
    512GB Flash Storage
    Intel Iris Pro Graphics+Nvidia GT750m 2GB
    will work with the ASUS PB287Q 4K or the samsung U28D590D?
    I read that if u connect it with HDMI you only get 30Hz, is there a way to get 60Hz with the macbook pro?
    They both have a displayport port.
    Thanks

    I just hooked up my ASUS pb287q and downloaded SwitchResX.  It took some playing around but now I'm getting near perfect retina (2x) resolution.  First choose "Scaled" under the 'display' tab then switch over to SwitchResX and go to the  'current resolution' scroll down to the bottom and select 1280x720, 60hz (HiDPI).  This will give you the retina quality.  It's really big but remember it's twice the resolution of 1280x720. 
    If it's too big for you, you can play around the other resolutions, but this is the setting I would recommend.
    I tested this in Adobe Photoshop CS (uses retina standard) and opened a document that was 2572x5760, it fit perfectly at 100% zoom.
    I'm using a displayport 1.2 and a HDMI 1.4 4k cable.  links provided below.

  • 3D Studio on new Macbook pro 2014

    Hi everyone, I work a lot on 3D Studio Max on windows and I was looking to switch to Mac. Does anyone know how the performanece would be affected since its a windows program?
    The Macbook Pro that Im looking into is this:
    2.5GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.7GHz
    16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
    512GB PCIe-based Flash Storage
    Intel Iris Pro Graphics and NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB of GDDR5 memory
    Thanks!

    Use Boot Camp. Parallels is a virtualization application that runs under OS X. Its main advantage is that you do not have to restart your Mac in order to use Windows, but performance will be reduced dramatically.
    A Mac with Windows is just like any other computer, so that application should not crash your Mac. The only thing you have to be careful (if you are going to use that application for very long periods of time) is to keep it cool.

  • How to connect new Macbook pro 2014 to iMac 2010 for a secondary display

    I have a new Macbook Pro 2014 and an old iMac 2010. How can I connect them to have an additional secondary display? I thought I would need a thunderbolt cable with a Thunderbolt to Mini DisplayPort adapter but I can't find that. There's lots of options and I don't understand what would be best.
    Macbook Pro 2014
    iMac 2010
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Hi Nathaniel,
    Thunderbolt is another way of calling it a Mini Displayport, thunderbolt is just faster and has more usage with other products (i.e. hdds, displays etc.) You can hook up a thunderbolt to a mini-display port because both are the same size and serve the same function. Just don't connect anything to the display port on the iMac other than a computer.

    My Macbook Pro 2014 is running extremely slow in Mac Excel 2011.  I just recently made the purchase (Last week) to upgrade from my Macbook Pro 2013.  The upgrade was for work as I handle large spreadsheets in my new role.  It would take some time to load before, and I was told it was because I only had 4GB of RAM.  Now, I have 16 GB of RAM and it runs slower than before.  Can anyone assist me with a solution?
