*** MyDigitalSSD SBXe 960 GB success story ***
#1
Today I installed this drive with @danielt hack (thanks Smile ).
PBP was at 14% of battery at the time I booted it and the boot was successful. Then I copied almost entire filesystem from eMMC to SSD and it went fine.

So I think one might say it works OK. If anything bad happens I will update this thread.

I ordered it on amazon and it came quite quick delivered straight from amazon warehouse by DHL.


edit1: I have put it into hardware accessory compatibility list on wiki.


edit2: Some performance comparison between eMMC and NVME:


[root@pbp ~]# hdparm -Tt --direct /dev/nvme0n1


/dev/nvme0n1:
 Timing O_DIRECT cached reads:   1934 MB in  2.00 seconds = 966.69 MB/sec
 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
 Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 2646 MB in  3.00 seconds = 881.86 MB/sec




[root@pbp ~]# hdparm -Tt --direct /dev/mmcblk2

/dev/mmcblk2:
 Timing O_DIRECT cached reads:   300 MB in  2.01 seconds = 149.55 MB/sec
 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Invalid argument
 Timing O_DIRECT disk reads: 440 MB in  3.01 seconds = 146.42 MB/sec
