Mac Pro includes four drive bays, allowing you to configure it with up to 8 terabytes of storage using 7200-rpm Serial ATA 3Gb/s drives, up to 2 terabytes of storage using high-performance solid-state drives, or any combination of each type of drive. The cable-free, direct-attach drive solution lets you install and remove drives in a snap. To install a drive, you connect a simple drive carrier to the hard drive, then just slide it into place - no cables or connectors to cause you hassle. Removing the drive is just as easy. Every Mac Pro ships with four hard drive carriers.
This solution is perfect if you ever share drives among different workstations at home or the studio. Answer Solid-state drives, generally? Yes, they work in a Mac Pro 1,1 if you can get them to fit physicall Solid-state drives, generally? Yes, they work in a Mac Pro 1,1 if you can get them to fit physically - nearly all SSDs are 2.5' or 1.8', and the Mac Pro drive caddies are built for 3.5' drives. This Apple '512GB Solid-State Drive Kit for Mac Pro' includes a specialized adapter bracket that connects the 2.5' SSD to a late-model Mac Pro drive caddy. This specialized Apple bracket does NOT fit a Mac Pro 1,1 drive caddy but you can easily find generic 'hot-swap ready' brackets elsewhere which do fit. (You won't actually be 'hot swapping' but you do need the spatial orientation of the two connectors vis-a-vis the backplane to be right.) Apple OS X 10.7 (& later) enables industry-standard TRIM support on Apple SSDs, only.
Thus, this Apple 500GB drive in an after-market bracket in a Mac Pro 1,1 caddy will work just fine - I am writing this response using exactly that configuration. More (Read full answer).

This 512 GB SSD uses the standard 2.5' hard drive design, making it compatible with most laptops and desktops, but not the 13' or 15' Macbook Pro with Retina Display. More (Read full answer). Answered by Swayam S from Pleasanton. on 12-May-2013. Answer I'm assuming you have a Mac Pro desktop?
If so, you can follow my instructions here: If you don't I'm assuming you have a Mac Pro desktop? If so, you can follow my instructions here: If you don't have Lion on a USB drive to install from, read this. The simple answer is yes but you have to partition the SSD drive to be a boot drive via disk utility. See below for details.
Turn off computer. Open up the side panel on computer and remove the drive sled from one of the empty bays, and slide in the new SSD Drive. After starting your computer back up, the Mac immediately recognizes it as a solid state drive and promptly asks to initialize it via disk utility.
I selected one partition and named it Mac HD, and under options selected GUID partition table. Using Carbon Copy Cloner, I cloned my startup drive to the SSD Drive (Mac HD). That took about 2.5 hours. After it was done, I opened up System Preferences Startup Disk, and selected Mac HD, then hit the Restart button in the Startup Disk preferences. After restart, the SSD was the primary drive and I was able to repartition the old drive (or erase it) and use it for storage or Time Machine backups. More (Read full answer).
