Does the Apple MacBookPro2,2 Take an NVMe SSD?
Apple MacBookPro2,2
Every one of 11 field reports observed SATA storage rather than NVMe.
That is useful evidence about the reported machines, but it does not prove that every configuration lacks an NVMe slot or that the installed SATA drive is 2.5-inch rather than SATA M.2. Check the service manual, connector, dimensions, and current drive before ordering.
Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.
Reported by field data
- Storage controller:
- Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) IDE Controller
- Platform:
- Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 945GT Express Memory Controller Hub
- Drives seen:
- FUJITSU MHW2120B, FUJITSU MHY2120B, Samsung SSD 840
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
How we know
This answer is derived from 11 independent hardware reports for the Apple MacBookPro2,2, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
