Q: Questiondoes this work for mac studio

Asked 1 year ago by subbastion.

• A:Answer While the Mac Studio DOES have a physically removable SSD, only the SSD that the system was shipped with and recognized by the T2 chip will work with the system. This means no 3rd party SSD will work with the Mac Studio. If you want to read more, I would recommend reading Ars Technica’s “Explaining the Mac Studio’s removable SSDs, and why you can’t simply swap them out” article.
