I’d be willing to bet the SSD in the MacBook Air has tight integration with OS X to guarantee quicker than normal boot times.Ĭlearly the new Air isn't instant on from a boot standpoint, but it's pretty much there from a recover-from-sleep standpoint. Apple does customize the firmware on its SSDs. You'll notice that even the SF-1200 SSD in my 15-inch MacBook Pro takes longer to boot than these new Airs. It’s even a shorter boot than my MacBook Pro with a SandForce SF-1200 based SSD in it: System Performance Comparison That time is significantly reduced compared to the old MacBook Air and any other Mac with a conventional hard drive. From a completely powered off state the MacBook Air still takes time to boot. In terms of other options for SSDs for my Mid 2010 MBP 13", are there any SSDs you'd recommend aside from the 840 Pro? I am looking in the 240 GB+ area that is a reasonalbe price and, above all else, reliable.Apple advertises the new MacBook Air as being instant on as a result of the internal SSD.
250GB for the 840 & 256GB for the 840 Pro)? I believe i read somewhere that the warranty length is different, but i'd like to see other differences i should know about. What are the main differences between the 840 and 840 pro, aside from the negligible storage size difference in each "tier" (i.e. So if I put my SSD on it, it will no longer be bottlenecked and run close to advertised speeds, correct? (Going on with the previous question) If so, when I evnetually get a new mac down the road, it will obviously have SATA III.
Since my MBP is Sata II, the optimal, advertised speeds will be bottlenecked since it it not SATA III correct? (Of course, it will still be a tremendous improvement over my 5400 RPM HDD). So im in the market to get an SSD for my Mid 2010 MBP 13".Īfter reading all these comments, the Samsung 840 Pro is on the table.
