DIY Bundle: OWC Data Doubler Kit + 1.0TB OWC 6G SSD

OWC Data Doubler Kit, 1.0TB 2.5" OWC Mercury Electra 6G Solid State Drive and OWC 5 Piece Toolkit
OWC Internal SSD DIY Kit
Everything you need in one package to replace your internal optical drive with additional storage space.
Configuration flexibility is yours when you replace your MacBook or MacBook Pro's internal SuperDrive with the OWC Data Doubler. This custom engineered blue anodized aluminum bracket with attached PCB circuit board comes ready to mount the included drive.

Then, just install the entire assembly into a MacBook or MacBook Pro 5.25" optical drive bay. OWC Data Doubler makes it easy to custom design how you want your internal storage to perform. Installed drives are recognized like any other high speed SATA storage device and can be setup and partitioned using the Apple Disk Utility Program.
Just a few of the configuration options you can enjoy with Data Doubler:
  • Creating an individual volume with it
    own desktop icon.
  • Combining a new drive with the existing internal drive for one larger volume (SPAN).
  • Combining a new matching drive with existing internal for high-performance RAID-0 Stripe volume.
  • Configuring a new drive as a Time Machine®
    backup drive.
  • Formatting one drive for the Mac OS and the other dedicated for Windows.
Power Tip
Spin-down hard drives sooner to save battery power. Running an extra hard drive in your laptop can drain battery power faster than a single drive. But you can tell your Mac to put hard drives to sleep sooner than normal to save power.

This is an advanced tip that requires working in Terminal. For the step-by-step explanation, visit our blog.
Includes:
  • OWC Data Doubler Kit
  • 1.0TB OWC Mercury Electra™ 6G SSD
  • OWC 5 Piece Toolkit
Please note, that before attempting to perform this installation, it is recommended you watch the associated instructional video in its entirety to determine your ability to perform this complex procedure. OWC assumes no responsibility for damage that may occur during the install.

Special compatibility notes related to use of this product with 6Gb/s SSDs in the following machines:
2011 MacBook Pro 13" (Model ID MacBookPro8,1)
2011 MacBook Pro 15" (Model ID MacBookPro8,2)
2011 MacBook Pro 17" (Model ID MacBookPro8,3)

2012 MacBook Pro 15" (Model ID MacBookPro9,1)
  • MAIN BAY: A 6G SSD may be utilized in main bay (move drive or second SSD into Optical Bay*) for reliable SATA Revision 3.0 6Gb/s performance in excess of 500MB/s.

    (Model ID MacBookPro8,3) models. After successfully applying this update, your Boot ROM Version will be: MBP81.0047.B1E. Please read our very informative Blog Post for additional information.

    OPTICAL BAY: The optical bay interface may either be SATA Revision 2.0 3Gb/s (300MB/s max) OR SATA Revision 3.0 6Gb/s. There is no way to specify/order this data interface with Apple, but you can confirm what interface version your optical bay offers by using 'About this Mac, More Info, Serial-ATA' info display.

    Testing has demonstrated that Apple factory hardware does not reliably support a 6G (6Gb/s) Solid State Drive or Hard Disk Drive in the optical bay of 2011 and 2012 MacBook Pros (Model ID 8,1; 8,2; 8,3; 9,1; 9,2). If your OWC Data Doubler bundle comes with a 6G drive, you should ONLY install that drive in the main drive bay and utilize the Data Doubler to re-task your existing drive or install a new 3G SSD or HDD in the optical bay. PRE-2011 models can utilize a 6G drive in the optical bay, but will do so at a reduced 3G (3Gb/s) speed.

    MacBook Pro 13" models: Apple does not support the use of 6Gb/s drives in the optical bay. While we have observed a high rate of success using SATA 3.0 6Gb/s drives in Apple 13" bays where 6Gb/s link is present, some systems may not operate properly with this setup. For guaranteed reliability/compatibility, we suggest 6Gb/s drives be used in the main drive bay only, and 3Gb/s hard drives or SSDs be used in the optical bay when a two-drive configuration is desired. We cannot guarantee proper or successful 6Gb/s drive operation in the Apple MacBook Pro 13" optical bay.

    2008/2009 MacBook/MacBook Pro 13", 15", and 17" models. (Model IDs: MacBookPro5,1; 5,2; 5,3; 5,4; 5,5 and MacBook5,1; 6,1; 7,1) While a 6G SSD does function, it will only do so at SATA Revision 1.0 (1.5Gb/s) speeds rather that the SATA Revision 2.0 (3.0Gb/s) speed the machine can deliver. Should owners of these machines desire another SSD option, the Mercury Electra™ 3G SSD does run at the full SATA Revision 2.0 (3Gb/s) specification.

    NOTE: Apple's DVD Player application only works with an internal optical drive or Apple's external SuperDrive. To play DVDs with your removed optical drive after installing it in an external enclosure such as the OWC SuperSlim, we recommend the free VLC Player, which can be downloaded from http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

Release Candidate (RC) firmware set

There are two kinds of firmware for SSDs Mass Production (MP) and Release Candidate (RC). Prior to an MP firmware release, there are beta firmware releases and an RC firmware release. Often, the RC is the same as the MP release, however there can be small changes and bug fixes made between the two. OWC has evaluated the RC for the 6Gb/s SandForce 2281 Processor and found it to be stable with no issues reported during our testing. However, as with any evolutionary product, issues may surface as different usages and configurations are employed and it is important to understand that there will be further updates and revisions.

Since no firmware update is currently offered for the OWC Mercury EXTREME Pro 6G SSD, no update page exists. To see the typical steps involved with a self performed field firmware update, please visit our 3Gb/s product update page at: http://eshop.macsales.com/Customized_Pages/Framework.cfm?page=sf_firmware.html

It is important to note that the current firmware update tool requires the use of Windows XP/Vista/7. OWC is currently working on a Mac OS based update tool, but we do not have an exact availability date.

  1. 1GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Total accessible capacity varies depending upon operating environment (typically 5-10% less). The actual total capacity will depend on your own defined file settings/preferences. 
  2. Temperature reporting is currently an unsupported feature because due to the operating characteristics of SSDs, it is highly unlikely one would ever exceed an OWC Mercury SSD's stated operating temperature ceiling of 158F/70C. However, we are looking into supporting this feature in the future via a firmware update. Firmware updates can be found here: http://eshop.macsales.com/tech_center/OWC/SSD.

Rating: 5/5 Best Upgrade I Performed to my Mac November 8, 2016 The best thing about OWC products is the installation videos and customer service. They go out of their way to help you perform the installations yourself. I received the SSHD, datadoubler, and toolkit on time. I watched the installation video once in full and performed the installation without any issues. I am no technician by any means but this was easy. The toolkit is really all you need. I booted up using the SSHD and was impressed. The operating speed was tremendously improved. I cannot brag enough. Before this idea came to install the SSHD, I was going to purchase a new mac altogether. Then, give the old mac (with the new SSHD) to my son in college. Now, I'm not even considering the new macbook. I sent it to my son. That, is how much better my old (2013) mac is.

Rating: 5/5 Excellent Shopping Experience, Unique Products October 31, 2016 Other World Computing has put together a set of products and a shopping experience that beat the competition in the highly competitive on-liine world of shopping. For me, finding the right part involves logging into their web site, telling them what I was looking for using the on-line chat system, and then clicking on the parts they recommended and buying. It is not obvious which exact parts go with which Macs, but they make it easy.

Rating: 5/5 Why did I wait so long? September 27, 2016 Installation was easy using the videos OWC made. I bought this SSD as a gamble on extending the life of my 2010 17 inch MacBookPro which was frustrating me because of being slow despite my having the max amount of RAM. To my surprise the difference was startling! For example, boot up used to take 3 minutes,and now it's 35 seconds. Why did I wait years before getting an SSD? Replacement of my optical drive, which I almost never used, with the Data Doubler, was also easy guided by the video. I moved the original HDD to the optical bay, and now I have 2TB of internal storage at hand!. I've been using OWC exclusively for RAM and storage products for myself and my family for years.. Only once did I get a defective product and customer service was most helpful and replacement was easy and rapid. You can't go wrong with OWC.

Rating: 5/5 Excellent performance, solid quality August 19, 2016 The mounting bracket looks great, it's almost a shame to lock it away out of sight inside the MBP. the SSD has performed just as expected. The instructions were very helpful, and easy to follow. However, for my mid 2009 13" MBP there was a cable retainer that the instructions didn't mention, and i foolishly forced the cable, damaging it. So watch out for that.

Rating: 5/5 Works well July 19, 2016 This disk reactivated my old MacBookPro late 2008. Now I have 2 computers in one, for I decided to install an OS on the SSD. I nearly don't use anymore the (same) OS on the older disk (a hybrid MomentumXT 500GB, old model) because I sense it too slow, the difference is really to big. Anyway, I can access to the files form one to another (that is why I don't need a bigger SSD at all). It is a great solution to rescue an old machine.

Now, the installing was easy, it came with the tools, screws and a quite detailed instruction with a lot of pictures for any model. I am used to unmount my computer, but for a newbie, I guess it would be really clear and easy.

Just a detail: there is a little piece, a tiny silver bracket which holds the original drive in most models and has to be transferred to the data doubler. It is absolutely imprescindible. So, don't loose it, and if you are in the special situation, like me, that somebody has taken out the optical drive out without repositioning this piece, you are screwed. I finally succeeded to replace it with an own construction (fishcan, scissors, Dremel), but it would be a great idea if OCW gives the option to get this part.

Another thing: the data cable from the hard drive goes to its fixture on the motherboard in a quite stressed angle, sometimes it seems like wanting to get loose. I had to press hard and get sure it didn't release before closing the machine.

Conclusion = Installing a SSD turns your computer again an acceptable work horse. The price of OCW is really good, and despite this the quality is excellent. And, if this would be not enough, they take care of the customer, providing the necessary tools and instructions to make it home. Also their feedback is fast and kind. All in all, I recommend the brand, the product, the service, and I will buy more stuff here :)

Rating: 5/5 Best computer upgrade I've ever done July 2, 2016 Since I can't get another 17" MacBook Pro, I needed to upgrade performance on my 2011 machine. This kit was simple to install (1.5 hours start to finish) and after I upgraded to current system software before migrating everything from the drive I moved to the optical bay. Now the machine boots up in 12 seconds and simply screams through app opening and closing. The drive I moved to the optical bay is sitting there as a full backup for now but have never needed it. It sits there quietly after spin down waiting for me. This SSD is a revelation, I would have done it long ago if I had known. Once I'm more familiar with the new system, I'm going to move all music and pix to the SSD for almost instant access. Don't hesitate if you're undecided, it's the best investment you can make on a laptop. I didn't even need to add memory, 8 gig is plenty, and since the processor swaps with disc memory if I ever go over RAM, it's using the SSD which is just as fast. Top that off with the second drive onboard and my laptop just earned another 5 years of far upgraded utility and durability for pocket change. 5 stars, guarantee you won't regret it.

Rating: 5/5 Nice upgrade March 5, 2016 I decided to install the data doubler with a SSD drive into my macbook pro. This computer is a mid 2010 model, and the CD drive needed to be replaced, so made the decision to replace it with this upgrade rather than a new CD drive. I had some problems at first with the SSD drive ejecting all by itself. I did some research and found others had the same problem with several brands of SSD drives. One suggestion was to turn off the hard drive sleep in preferences. I have not had any problem lately after doing this. I can put the computer to sleep, and the SSD drive is still there and working. All in all this was a very good upgrade for me.

Rating: 5/5 Adds performance and value February 7, 2016 The dual SSD setup in my MBP has greatly enhanced performance! Boot time is greatly reduced and battery life is much better than with the original single HHD. Set up was straight forward and tech support ensured I got exactly the right combination of parts for my machine.
