By incorporating advanced flash management technologies along with Dynamic SLC caching, the Aura Pro IV delivers exceptional transfer speeds with high data integrity and drive reliability.
Ideal Inside or Out
The Aura Pro IV features an industry-standard form factor so you can effortlessly install it into notebook, small form factor, and full-sized desktop computers in a variety of ways:
  • Directly on motherboards equipped with an M.2 2280 slot
  • In a x4/x8/x16 PCIe slot with a single drive PCIe M.2 SSD adapter card like the OWC Accelsior 1M2 to increase speed and storage capacity
  • In a x4/x8/x16 PCIe slot with a multi-drive PCIe M.2 SSD adapter card like the OWC Accelsior 4M2 or OWC Accelsior 8M2 to create the ultimate performance drive for AI, cloud computing, and machine learning
If your Mac/PC doesn't have an open or compatible PCIe slot but is Thunderbolt compatible, PCIe adapter cards like OWC Accelsior can be used externally in a PCIe Expansion chassis like the OWC Mercury Helios 3S.
