I think anything that proves that this card is worth buying would be fantastic Georg. I'm debating buying it also, but only if it actually brings this bad boy to gigabit.
Forgive me if this was asked already — but if I want to switch from a 24gig ssd / 1tb hdd fusion configuration to a strictly ssd config, which PCIe SSD can I use? I wrote OWC to see if I can use any of their PCIe blades, but they wrote back that they don’t make one that works for this model — but now that I’m doing a little more digging it looks like I’m finding old eBay listings for the SM0512G that point to it being used in the Macbook Air line.
Anyone have luck with an OWC PCIe blade as their main drive? Any lucky with a Macbook Air SSD?
If I’m going to upgrade to a SSD, I want it to use the fastest connection possible so the 2.5 drive isn’t optimal.

Any help appreciated, have a great day.
