Recovering/Copying Data from a MacBook Pro Removable SSD - Stupid Proprietary Socket - Jody Bruchon

If you have one of the Macs that came with a solid-state drive BEFORE they decided to solder the drives permanently to the motherboards, you'll have one of these suckers in there. You can use an Apple SSD PCIe x4 to standard PCIe x4 adapter card to plug your drive into a PC and use Linux with apfs-fuse to copy the data off of it to something else. This shows the process or removing the drive, installing it in the adapter, and retrieving the data on a PC within a Linux command prompt.

Thanks for such a great video! Do you have any recommendations for how to connect everything to a laptop if you don’t have one of your cool PCIe 16 readers? I’ve been looking for a simple adapter but can’t find one...
