I need to know what sort of external enclosure ...

I have an Apple iMac "Core i5" 3.2 27-Inch (Late 2013), - ME088LL/A - iMac14,2 - A1419 - 2639.

Dead unit; Target Disk Mode isn't an option.

No internal hard drive, just a 512GB SSD.

Without opening it yet, I'm assuming the SSD is living in the SSD slot on the back of the logic board, as opposed to the easier-to-access hard drive slot. More work for me. Oh, well...

I need to pull the 512GB SSD that's in it, and get access to the data.

I am wondering what pin-outs I'm potentially looking at on the SSD - 24, 26? - and what enclosures/cables might work with the SSD to access it from another computer.

Connection could go from the SSD to USB for instance, or from the SSD to SATA.

Time is somewhat crucial here, and I'd like to keep the adapter cost below say, $70 as this will be a one-off.

Many thanks in advance.



I think you will find that the SSD is a PCIe card, not a standard 2.5" form-factor SSD. You might want to check with OWC for a possible replacement/adapter and an enclosure. OWC also should have visual disassembly instructions for your model that should help with disassembly.



Kappy is correct,  contact OWC.



Yup - from the intertubes, will look something like the pic here.  The visual inspection indicates the possibility of PCIe, but...what pin-out, exactly?  What's going to be the best adapter to use for this that will work the first time around?  Guess it's up to OWC, as you folks suggest.  If anyone else knows, your input would be appreciated.Screen Shot 2017-08-24 at 4.14.59 PM.png



Oh, and here's OWC's response:

 

"Apple uses non standard PCIe SSDs for their Macs.  Unfortunately, we do not have a guide or method of removing/replacing the PSSD inside of this mac model, as it may be soldered to the logic board. For assistance and questions regarding this, we recommend contacting Apple Support."

 

Any other ideas are appreciated.
