• Out of the box, No. You will seed a NVME adapter to accommodate this drive. Even then, you may also run into sizing issues. I suggest doing a google search on your machine to find out the specific parts you will need. Then check out Youtube for an upgrade video.

• Unfortunately, no. Apple used drives with proprietary firmware and only specific Mac-compatible drivers will work. This isn't one of them.
