The R43SG does not need rows 4-6 so you can use the script as shown. Uncomment these rows (remove the # character) in that case.

You might need to disable and enable the PCI Express Root Port as shown in the image below:

The tested eGPU enclosures via TB2 were Netstor HL23T and Asus XG-Station Pro. Rows 4-6 are only necessary if your eGPU occupies the TB2 port (left top) and you are using a Radeon VII, because it requires twice as much non-prefetchable memory in 32bit space than RX 580.

I chose Samsung Portable SSD T5, attached to the right side USB 3 port (up to 5Gbps).ģ) sudo mount -t msdos /dev/disk2s1 /Volumes/EFI (where disk2s1 is your EFI disk identifier) For these reasons, I recommend an external USB for Boot Camp. NVMe SSDs are completely another story, let's now focus on eGPU.Ī TB2 disk is possible but it takes more PCIe resources due to bridges and shows up irregularly in startup manager. With NVMeFix ( ) I saw a reduce in power consumption, not close to original Apple SSD readings but very welcome improvement. The final fix was sysprep, otherwise the boot got stuck at blue screen: My shortcut was WinClone but that also failed if the destination was USB drive. Use Boot Camp Assistant with your new NVMe SSD. Works well between two NVMe SSD Boot Camp installations but Windows does not like if you are cloning from the original AHCI SSD or from the NVMe SSD to USB. The fastest way to clone your internal disk is to use dd command, for example I am using Corsair MP510 960GB (be careful with disk identifiers):

It follows the same memory address sequences that Linux driver uses: The iGPU activation also differs from previous implementions because now we control the gmux directly, not through nvram variables. However, if you choose the right values, there is a high chance it will work. The memory areas presented here are machine specific and not applicable to other systems as such.

I originally got the idea some years ago when someone asked how to fix the error code 12 with the nMP on this forum. To my knowledge, this method is not described anywhere else. I decided to put my theory in practice and enlarged the problematic memory area the eGPU requests. This is a big obstacle in Windows, resulting in error code 12. The root issue with the Thunderbolt is too narrow PCIe bridges. For this reason, I recommend to use the short Sintech adapter which did not have this issue. During reassembly of the lower case, the other plastic clip in the middle did not seem to snap in. It turned out that the socket of the longer adapter was too tall. So I ordered both the short and longer adapters from Sintech: The most interesting thing is PCIe 3.0 x4 of course, more than doubling the transfer speed compared to TB2, and leaves behind TB3 as well due to its 22Gbps limit and complex design.Īs we know, Apple uses a proprietary interface but luckily there exists M.2 NVMe adapters for upgrading 2013-2015 MBP's SSD. There are so many things we miss from this machine. Official battery replacement was not as expensive as I thought and the cycle count was 0! This model supports "silent clicking", a nice feature that turns off the sound of your trackpad's click.

This is now my primary Mac as it has a brand new battery and top case with the keyboard. Thanks to and earlier implementations, I was interested in trying out a direct M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 interface of my Mid 2015 15" MBP (M370X) for eGPU.
