There are a few important things to consider when upgrading a 2013 Mac Pro. Here are some points that may help you:

1. Firmware update: Check beforehand which boot ROM version your Mac Pro has. To do this, click the Apple menu ➜ About This Mac ➜ System Report.

2. macOS USB stick: Remember to create a bootable macOS Monterey USB stick. You can find detailed information about this in this Apple support article: https://support.apple.com/de-de/HT201372

3. NVMe Compatibility: Please note that due to age, not all NVMe drives may be compatible with the Mac Pro 6.1.

In particular, the completely new PCI 4.0 NVMe's are likely to cause the most problems. Keep in mind that NVMe manufacturers use different controller chips.

Therefore, pay particular attention to compatibility, for example by looking at this list:

4. Cooling: If the NVMe gets too warm, you can add a flat M.2 SSD cooler.

It is important that you research carefully and understand the specific requirements and capabilities of your Mac Pro model to ensure a successful and compatible upgrade experience.
