Apple Macbook Pro 2016 Ram Upgrade

It works I tried several aftermarket adapters to get my superdrive to work with my 2016 MacBook Pro but only the Apple Adapter worked

Worked like a charm on my 2016 MacBook Pro w/ touchbar.

I use it to hook up my thunderbolt monitors to my 2016 MacBook Pro.

I very recently purchased a new Mac Pro 6-Core D700. Spending the money (hopefully) where it counts! Ha ha... After some googling around I came to the conclusion that I should aim for the least amount of RAM from Apple as possible, because it's really the simplest component to upgrade yourself and Apple charges an extra $ or so dollars for 64GB of their RAM v.s. an upgrade kit like this OWC! It was really a no-brainer. Anyway, it's been about 3 weeks with this memory and I have to say that I have really been enjoying it :) I'd recommend it for sure. If you know you're going to need some serious memory for multi-tasking or just intensive programs. There's not a better upgrade kit out there! OWC even sends a little tool to help you access the Mac Pro memory where Apple would just suggest using your fingers. Forget using fingers! This Mac is a 5k investment, LOL, I'm gonna treat it with some respect. Much-o thanks for the tool OWC! :D

Cheap way to upgrade your macbook pro!

I purchased this to make an external boot drive for my 2015 MacBook Pro. This device is probably the fastest way to add external storage to my machine since the Thunderbolt 2 ports are far faster than the USB3 ports. Since this Sabrent Thunderbolt 3 enclosure is self-powered, you can use the Apple Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter in reverse, making full use of the MacBook's Thunderbolt 2 port and getting super fast transfer speeds, making it suitable for use as a boot drive. I don't have any benchmark utilities, but I copied a large VMware image from the internal Apple SSD to an external 2TB FireCuda 530 and saw an Activity Monitor peak write speed of 1.6GB/sec, which is super fast. The case gets a little warm, but that means that it is effectively sinking heat from the M2 drive. I used this to successfully build and test a system upgrade to Mojave, and will continue to use this to occasionally run modern OS versions that I don't want to permanently upgrade to due to software compatibility issues with old apps I still need to run. Right now, it's Velcro'ed to the laptop lid and holds a 1TB drive waiting to test Catalina, so I can see which apps break before deciding if I want to take the plunge. All in all, it's perfect as an external drive for my older MacBook Pro, it's well priced, and extremely well constructed. I'll continue to use it for the rest of the life of this machine, and it'll still be useful if I upgrade to a more modern machine later.

Yep ... I teach classes with my new 2016 MacBook Pro and need this to get onto classroom projector.

With a 2016 MacBook Pro 13 I only have two ports. What a difference the right tool makes!

I had 8GB of ram and this upgrade was so easy and way less than getting it through Apple. The ram functions great and as it should.

Apple MacBook Pro's have always delivered, and this one is no exception.
