[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 574066, member: 21101"] The speed peice is debatable. You gain sequential [B]read[/B] speed certainly, so booting up and launching apps is quicker. However writes, are slower (so virtual memory, or copying large files/installing apps). I'd wait for some benchmarks to decide, because $1000 is a lot of money for less space and potentially a poorer performing drive than you get in a standard MacBook. Remember when Apple say it's quicker, they mean it's quicker than the 4200 rpm drive. [/QUOTE]
