I am able to boot into Windows 10 now, but because the Aura Pro X is formatted with APFS, Windows can’t see it, so that’s my challenge now – restarting the computer back into OS X via Apple Remote Desktop. Don’t know if that’s just a fluke or if it proves (to me, at least) that it’s better to partition from the Boot Camp assistant rather than do it manually via Disk Utility, but going this route I am now able to bless the Windows partition AND it took significantly less time to image the Boot Camp partition on the second try – maybe six hours compared to 36! Prior to this, I wasn’t allowed to bless the Windows partition from within OS X, but now I can. #Owc aura pro bootcamp installIn case it’s of any use, I let the third install run and it finally finished after about 36 hours.įor what it’s worth, I had to re-image the Boot Camp partition again, but rather than manually partition the drive via Disk Utility, I used the Boot Camp assistant instead. i need to correct my earlier message, this was an install on an Aura Pro X, not the X2. Thanks for any info/suggestions you can share! I guess my question at this point is, am I wasting my time? based on your experience, am I doomed to fail because we’re using the OWC drives? FWIW, I’m using the block-based imaging.Īs mentioned, I used Winclone 6 to make the image and am using Winclone 7 to restore it. I’m on my third attempt with the image copied directly to the OS X partition, but I’m not hopeful. I tried installing from the network (has worked in the past) and when that seemed too slow, tried installing from a USB with no improvement. In my case I’ve let it run 24 hours and barely got up to an 8th of the way to the finish. I’ve used Winclone in the past so anything over 4 hours seems very out of the ordinary. The receiving machine is running 10.13.6 and is using the OWC Aura Pro X2 SSD. The Mac hardware for the two machines is identical (Mac Pro (Late 2013)), except that the “template” machine on which the Winclone image was created is running OS X 10.11.6 (used Winclone 6 to make the image) and is still outfitted with the original SSD drive. After installation, the macbook works as well as the original and, indeed, even. The original 128GB SSD on my Macbook Pro Retina 13 (Mid-2014 and running Mojave 10.14.4) was beginning to fill up and I therefore researched the issue and eventually bought a 1TB OWC Aura Pro X2 as a replacement. Hi Tim, Just wondering if you have had any luck getting the OWC drive to work? I’m trying to migrate a clean install of Windows 10 and so far it’s pretty slow going. Cannot install Windows 10 - Macbook Pro Retina 13.
