Macs are much better computers both in build quality and support... PLUs it can always run windows flawlessly using BootCamp so crawl back in your holes you Apple haters, I'm not a fanboy, I just state the trueth and that is a Macbook Pro build is more reliable than the above average priced laptop build. Case closed.
I just installed an Intel SSD on my MBP yesterday which is the same one as this one. And now when I boot it up I dont even get the spinning circle anymore. It's ridicilous
"For the last 10 or 20 years, computers manufacturers have been fooling us into thinking their computers were getting faster and faster." After I purchased a new 2011 March edition MPB with thunderbolt etc I have to agree !!! I thot it would humm along while processing photos in Lightroom and PS. Sadly it is the HDD that is slowing me down. Good test by the way. Big difference. I often push my MBP and this convinces me to go with the SSD.

They aren't cloned systems. Look a the number of icons on each machine and only the SSD one has the dock up the side. While these are small differences, they are still differences and there could be others too. Just saying...
@327bran SSD is much better, for almost everything but space quantity, I'd say use SSD for your operating system and a fast hard drive for storage of media
@327bran SSD is much better, for almost everything but space quantity, I'd say use SSD for your operating system and a fast hard drive for storage of media.
Please before to say something totaly false and without any relation tpo apple macbook pro, have a read to Intel core i5 spec, you should read 110° max at burned, and please don't compare a MBP and your machine, they are completly.
First buy an MBP same as this one and you could talk about thing you know, cause you don't :)
@SkFb still its not good for a CPU to have such high temperatures.
I own MBP + this machine but my mum uses MBP cause MBP has no 8GB DDR3 1333Mhz ram, is too slow, why buy OS X when only using windows, no compatibility to most games I usualy play, 2 HD6970 dont fit @ all in a MBP :D
Hmm I really like what I see in this video. I have a macbook pro 15 inch late 2008 and I am thinking of upgrading to a SSD. I have a 320GB HDD at 7200rpm but I am looking for higher performance. Do you think you assist me with that?
HDD got owned. SSD is random access so it would obviosly win in a test like this. but it would be interesting to see how it went in a video recording test or a 3Dmark 06 test up agianst the HDD. (but unless it was a 15000RPM HDD in raid 0 I would bet that the SSD would win, but it would be interesting to see by how much)
I haven't seen noticable effects, i keep it running more than 5 hours average, sometimes 4h, sometimes 6++ despite the fact i've add the hitachi disk in the place of the superdrive and so do have two hard drive.
@SkFb In theory this is true--but the one thing I do worry about SSDs is they haven't really been around long enough to measure reliability vs. HDDs. But I haven't really read about many problems. I've been considering a SSD in my next machine. I'll probably take the leap.
@SkFb Yes but also if your harddrive crashes you cant recover anything from what ive herd. But its a mac, 1/100 probabilty chance unless your tring to OC your computer with all air vents closed
@herefortheheckofit This is why you should always make backups. Hard drives are just as likely (if not more) to crash. Sure it may be recoverable if you have a few thousand dollars to send it to a professional recovery company (if we're talking about an actual head crash) but for all practical purposes it very likely won't be recoverable. The bottom line is - hard drives crash, make backups!
This is an OCZ Vertex 64GB, with an indylix controler, not the new Vertex 2 with a sandforce controler who seems to be better. According to me and to many benchmarks and SSD's test, it is one of the best in the market, just behind IBM's (but much cheaper). I bought it 170 euro at materiel net
I'm getting ready to buy a new macbook pro next week with the ssd option. Is this ssd you have faster than the one that I would get from apple, or do you know? I'm not techie enough to order my own ssd and install it myself. Thanks.
hey i got myself the new macbook pro 15'' 2011 with a core i7 quad core processor and 128GB of RAM and i just did a reboot and it took me 20 seconds exactly and your boot up test was 17 seconds and shut down about 1.5 so yes it is a little quicker but i don't think it's that much of a difference (yes i did get it with apple's SSD but i am going to put a data doubler in there with a 750 GB HDD and yes apple's SSD is expensive). nice video anyways ;)
In fact i boot once every two or three months, i never shut down my MBP, neither my iMac, and have furious uptime (4 months for my MBP, obliged to reboot for update) so more or less few seconds ... :)
lol why are you doing that to your macbook pro? for the iMac it's ok since it doesn't have a battery inside of it but it 's really bad for the macbook pro to keep it on for that long because if you do you probably will keep it on charging and that way your battery gets ''lazy'' and it really drains the performance of your macbook pro. if you keep it on without charging it's ok but that will drain your battery allot for the next day. just saying ;)
because i need it, it is my job tool. And never never pull out a battery from your laptop, never. First, it will slow down your CPU to 1000MHz instead of the native frequency, and in case of overshock it will burn your motherboard.
It is made to be used, and it is more harmfull to have power on/off many times a day than to leave it suspended ;)
i wasn't telling you to take out the battery but just to not keep on charging while it's full already! and still i don't think that you have to have it on at night even though it's your job tool ;)
@Bogie3Flare C300 is more expensive and is only worth buying if your computer supports SATA 6G. Otherwise it will be limited by the host interface and you should just buy a SATA 3G drive like the OCZ Vertex 2.
how the fuck do you launch 48 apps at once?
