using samsung 850 evo for macbook pro 2015

I just purchased a macbook pro 2015 with retina display and I am looking for a way to use my recently purchased 850 eve ssd (my previous macbook went swimming accidentally). Is there any way I can salvage use of my ssd? It is not even 1 year old. If there's a way to use it internally it'll be even better.

MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch,Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

No you can not use it internally, however you can buy a external enclosure and use it as a backup.


Try Carbon Copy Cloner or Super Duper


Look on OWC website for external enclosures

Thanks leroy. You mention about using it as an external backup. Does it possibly include using it as an access address for an application and running it on windows? I am a designer and use rendering softwares


ie. running a rendering program from the external drive.

I don't know why not.


The real point is you can not use it internally.
