Marketing description

Your MacBook Pro’s factory SSD has served you well. But today’s apps and OS updates require more install space. Video and photo resolutions are increasing, making files bigger. By the time you toss in your music, emails, and other aspects of daily digital life, your drive is nearly full…or will be soon. You’re left with two undesirable choices: deleting older files so you don’t max out your drive’s capacity or replacing your trusty machine.

• Turbo charge your machine
  Your 2016-2017 13-inch non-Touch Bar MacBook Pro's factory SSD has served you well. But today's apps and OS updates require more install space. Video and photo resolutions are increasing, making files bigger. By the time you toss in your music, emails, and other aspects of daily digital life, your drive is nearly full... or will be soon. You're left with two undesirable choices: deleting older files so you don't max out your drive's capacity or replacing your trusty machine. The best choice you can make to give your MacBook Pro the capacity to do more is to upgrade it with the Aura Pro NT.
• Uncompromised performance
  Sure, you can continue to use that small capacity factory SSD by supplementing it with an external drive or cloud storage. But to do so, you'll suffer significant performance compromises, including lower throughput, higher latency, and misplaced files. The Aura Pro NT makes your MacBook Pro work for you... not the other way around. It puts all your Lightroom catalogs, audio sample libraries, 4K video footage, and games at your fingertips for immediate access with consistently incredible performance.
• A continued history of innovation
  The Aura Pro NT joins the broadest lineup of SSD upgrades offered for Apple laptops. Beginning with the world's first MacBook Air SSD in 2010, the Aura name has been synonymous with innovative engineering that delivers the highest performance and reliability available today. The Aura Pro NT's advanced flash management and SLC caching technologies continue the leadership lineage; enabling you to rip through production-level audio, design, and photography workflows, or just everyday file transfers/backups at speeds of up to 2720MB/s.
• A complete solution
  In true OWC fashion, they include installation tools and a how-to help guide, so the Aura Pro NT comes with everything you need to quickly upgrade your MacBook Pro.
• Store from minutes to millions
  All the features and "technospeak" of an SSD upgrade doesn't mean a thing if you don't know how much of a particular file type it can hold. For every 1TB of Aura Pro NT drive capacity, you can store up to: 200,000 photos, 250,000 standard quality songs, 38,000 high quality songs, 200 high-definition movies, 1330 minutes of GoPro 4K footage, or 4.3 million MS Office documents.
