Kingston HyperX Savage SSD compatibility issue on Apple MacBook Pro "Core 2 Duo" 2.4 15" (Unibody) Specs Identifiers: Late 2008 - MB470LL/A. Please help . . . .

Hello.

did you get it to work? finally, is it the cable or the trim?

Cheers

I do have the same issue. i already contacted Kingston Support to feedback me on the compatibility with MBP early 2011. as it showing compatible in their Website which was the reason i bought it . and still waiting for their feedback.

How did you go with this? I have the exact same issue, same drive, was considering changing the cable but it looks as if no go with that too?

I found no way to make it work with the USB. so i just implement it internally and connected it through the SATA cable and it worked. actually that was my main aim to have it replaced with the original HDD. it took me more effort just rather than clone the HDD into the SSD. so i backed up my data in different external HDD and installed a clean OS X using a DVD i have. Now every thing is fine except that i intended to use the original HDD as external. it worked for the first two days but not after that any more, as it been not powering up on my mac but it works with other!!

Ahhh k thats a little bit different to my issue, I have the same drive in an imac installed internally but cannot get it to work. Just takes forever to install and never boots.
