SSD disk not recognized on MacPro 2013 (SSD Upgrade with OWC Aura ProX2 1TB)-

Why an OWC Aura ProX2 1TB SSD doesn't work on one of my MacPro 2013, but he other yes ?

I own a MacPro2013 (bought in 2015) with 1TB SSD Apple / 32GB RAM / 6 cores that works very well.

in 2020, I bought another MacPro (2013) entry level 2nd hand (256 GB SSD, 16GB RAM / 4 cores), and I bought a OWC Aura ProX2 1TB SSD, and to my surprise it is not recognized by the later. However the MacPro with 1TBSSD Apple works also with the OWC SSD 1TB!!!

I also installed the 1 TB Apple original SSD from one MacPro to the other MacPro and it is not recognized either.

any clue ??

Many Thanks in advance.

You must have previously installed and run 10.13.6 at some point to use the Aura Pro in your 2013 Mac Pro. 10.13.6 will only install with an Apple SSD in place. There is no known work-around.

If the original Apple SSD drive (or the original Apple drive from a different Mac Pro 2013) does not work, the slot may be damaged or other Hardware problem.
