Hardware:
WiFi and Bluetooth:
Replace factory Intel wifi module with a macOS compatible one. Make sure that the card is of M.2 form factor. I replaced it with the BCM94360CS2 card. This works out of the box and has been stable for me thus far.
- The BCM94360CS2 module comes from the 2013 MacBook Air, supports BT 4.0 and 802.11a/g/n/ac. They run on eBay for <$15.
- For the BCM94360CS2 to work with the x1c6, you would also need a M.2 NGFF adapter. They run for <$10 on eBay under "BCM94360CS2 m2 adapter"
However, there exists other alternatives:
- Dell DW1820A, the "CN-08PKF4" model is reported to have the most successes, so make sure to look for that specifically.
M.2 Hard Drive Replacements:
macOS cannot be installed on the factory installed PM981 drive.
Replace factory Samsung PM981 with preferably a SATA M.2 SSD, as it is more power efficient and plays nicer with APFS than an NVMe M.2 SSD. However, if you absolute need the speed, Samsung NVMe drives are fast and are macOS compatible out of the box.
