2011 MacBook Air i5 vs. 2010 MacBook Pro: Boot-Up & Disk Speed Test

In this video I do another speed and performance comparison between the all new 2010 Core i5 MacBook Air and the 2010 MacBook Pro. However, this time I focus on the boot-up time and the speed differences between a SATA2 SSD and a traditional 5400rpm spinning hard drive. I hope you guys enjoyed this video!

Wow man, great video, I'm sure I heard from TLD that the 13.3" MBA models have the slower Toshiba drives in them, but yours seems to have the Samsung ssd, Do you think that when i buy one, it will include the faster Samsung drive or not? I'm from the UK by the way. (Thanks in advance)

@elliot0712 The only way to know buy it and test it out. If it doesn't have the Samsung, just keep exchanging until you get it.

Nexus S + MacBook pro + MacBook air = ballin

I have a 2010 iMac 21.5 (base model) and every time I get this:

117 write/120 read

That's pretty good for a HDD. However it is a 500gb 7200 rpm that is either a seagate barracuda or a wd caviar blue.

do you think if i get a macbook air from bestbuy it will come with the samsung ssd? if i don what can i do to get the samsung ssd?

[WaffleTheEpic]

They say the Macbook Pro has more power lol

@GONAVY26 iPhone 4S + MacBook Pro = Super Ballin !!!

I just have one question,if you don't want your Macbook Pro can I please have it?

[Fishcake21]

My seagate momentus XT is faster than that sad shit you got in your macbook pro homes. and i don't need sad shit for storage, use that fucking 8 gig ssh cache for booting up the shit and all my applications ese.

BTW i am a real hispanic so i have the right to talk like that.

[WallEandEveRock]

You have pretty good videos keep it up :)

@Aethan001 Yeah I'm sure he won't take offence to that...

[Aethan001]

Why do you try to sound black? Just asking don't take offense just why try to sound ignorant?

[zaneacademy]

did not realize there is that big a difference in speed...

I have the aluminum MB from 2008 and mine boots up in 30 sec :D
