  • With a twist of a T8 screwdriver, the SSD assembly is easily removed from the device.

  • For those playing along at home, we have only removed one screw, and the SSD is out. (Side note: the screw wasn't even proprietary!)

  • On board we find some rather familiar friends:

  • Samsung S4LN053X01-8030 (ARM) Flash Controller

  • Samsung K9HFGY8S5C-XCK0 Flash Storage

  • Samsung K4P4G324EB 512 MB RAM

  • This combination of hardware makes the Mac Pro's SSD suspiciously similar to those we've seen in the latest refresh of MacBook Pro Retina and MacBook Air.

  • To the point that only the last few digits of the model numbers are any different. Hmmm...
