Optimal SSD blade replacement for Late 2014 iMac (x2 Link Width)
Hi,
I would like to replace the 128 GB SSD blade in my Late iMac 20114 (15.1).
I would like to replace it with a minimum 1TB blade, ideally a 2TB one.
My understanding is that this iMac is limited to a x2 link width. So buying the latest and greatest (x4) would be limited by the x2 link??
So, my question is what would be the optimal speed specs of an SSD blade to be used in the system?
Are all current SSD blades x4? If so should I just settle with the cheapest?
Would something like the 2TB OWC Aura Pro X2 (OWCS3DAPT4MB20) be completely over the top?
Should I settle from some generic eBay 2TB blade like this? Bingo SSD, MPN:

or sth like this other generic eBay 1TB blade (2000 read/1600 write?

Any steering in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I forgot to ask, I know the OWC modules cannot run BootCamp. Is this generic across all other non-apple SSD Blades? Or is there any specific brand/model that would allow for bootcamp to work?
Esta é uma boa pergunta?
