UPGRADE your Mac Pro 5,1 / 4TB Sonoma Boot SSD with PCIe Card / Samsung EVO 870

Description: This will allow your Mac Pro 5.1 to Boot up on macOS Sonoma OR Monterey with a preloaded PCIe Boot drive using OpenCore 2.0.2 This is a preloaded boot drive created for a Mac Pro 5,1 that runs Sonoma using Open Core - Simply plug this in a 4x PCIe slot, boot up and your ready to go. • The 4 TB boot drive is made by Samsung used - healthy with 100% lifespan • The macOS Sonoma 14.7 is installed with OpenCore Legacy Patcher pre set up for a Mac Pro Tower 5,1 (Request Monterey 12.7 if you prefer) ThIs Boot drive is setup based on a Mac Pro 5,1 regardless of the year release – It is preferable to have the Wifi AC / Bluetooth 4 Combo Card upgrade If you still have the original legacy Bluetooth Module and Wifi N card installed, OpenCore will recognize this and want to install the Wifi Legacy Patch. If this is the case we will provide instructions on how to do this. We do have the the Wifi AC / Bluetooth 4 Combo Card upgrades for sale if you feel you need to do this before using this Boot drive. We highly recommend this upgrade for increased BT functionality and Wifi AC speed. We can create these for the Mac Pro 5,1 with Sonoma 14.7 OR Monterey 12.7 if requested and based on your prefered GPU. With Sonoma you really need a Fast GPU so the most compatible GPU is the Radeon RX 580 8GB (Keplar based GPUs) and they dont have to be flashed to work with this drive. However, For future upgrades for OC updates we prefer to use Mac Flashed GPUs for more control with bootloader screens on startups. What is the OpenCore Legacy Patcher: OpenCore is a sophisticated boot loader used to inject and patch data in memory, instead of on disk. This means that we're able to achieve a native experience on many unsupported Macs like the Mac Pro 5,1 series 2009/10/12 extending the life of these workhorse computers. As upgrades to the latest Apple and support applications are released, you still can use the traditional Software update system built into your macOS. Includes detailed Instructions for future upgrades you may require for OpenCore and macOS - These upgrades work seamlessly together and have become more automated. _gsrx_vers_1680 (GS 9.8.3 (1680))
