I rather not install that if that is going to be speed.

If you tear down your iMac, DO NOT USE SUPERGLUE AS REPLACEMENT FOR APPLE's STOCK TAPE TO ATTACH THE DISPLAY TO YOUR IMAC AGAIN xD xD xD xD xD I did so, all fine until I came up with the idea of adding an extra SSD xD xD xD It was a hell of a work to disconnect the display againĬan you tell me what year Mac air you got your blade from? I have a blade from a 2013 air but that thing was only getting 300/600 bench mark r/w speeds previously. My iMac runs continuously for maybe 48hours now without any bugs, hardware problems, and so on. So what should I do best? Keep the Fusion Drive or go with a separate NVMe PCIe SSD + SATA HD? Instead just use the NVMe SSD and the SATA Hd separately. I read that Fusion Drives were suggested back in the days but by now, more and more people write that Fusion Drives are not the best option and suggest not to use a Fusion Drive because it slows down the system too much. I today created a APFS Fusion Drive (NVMe SSD 250GB + 1TB SATA HD). Trim is enabled but is it really suggested? Is it better for the system performance or does active trim slow down the system?Ĥ. Also there is no possibility to get higher benchmarks by using different SSD drives like Intel 760 ssd models or stock apple ssd modules, right?ģ. As far as I am informed by now, late 2013 iMac 21.5 models are simply physically not able to support 4 lanes but only 2, right?Ģ. I also did not test different adapter brands, yet.ġ. I am just tired of tearing down the iMac again

Recommended: sintech adapters seem to work most of the time.Īlright, I did not unplug my NVMe again. sometimes it is just the M.2 Adapter which is not working with your Mac and/or NVMe SSD model.

even if the NVMe is connected correctly, unplug the NVMe SSD from the logic board and replug it again sometimes change the 2 lanes to 4 lanes. the NVMe SSD isn't connected to the Adapter correctly. Some people posted that sometimes the slow benchmark results of around 750 and 2 lanes instead of 4 come up because: I did some research and it seems like there's no way of getting the iMac to use 4 lanes, right? I checked the lanes, 2 lanes instead of the transcend's offered 4lanes. When I saw the transcend ssd Benchmarks I was pretty much ****ed up because I was expecting much higher R/W scores. seriously guys, benchmarks where not even close to 100 for reading/writing xD xD xD Is an iMac SATA HD really that slow normally?

I also checked the SATA 1TB built in benchmarks and. I ran several benchmark tools and all of them came up with 700 to 750 for both, reading and writing. I bought a cheap NVMe PCIe M.2 NGFF SSD 2013 2014 Adapter on eBay for connecting the transcend to the PCIe slot on the logicboard. Yesterday I added a NVMe 1.3 PCIe SSD transcend 220s (DRAM cache version) to the built in 1TB SATA HD. I recently upgraded the ram from 2x4GB to 2x8GB, iMac is working perfectly since then (maybe for 4 weeks + almost 24/7 turned on).
