what's going on guys Jonathan here with tle with some not so good news for some of you macbook air owners if you watched my video yesterday on how fast the new macbook airs are for 2011 you'll notice for the read/write speeds I got some pretty impressive numbers for the write speeds I got about 250 megabytes per second and for the read speeds I got about 270 megabytes per second so that was the 11 inch model this is the 13-inch model that you guys are witnessing right now so go ahead and run this test and see if anything looks funky or off so right off the bat you can see that is significantly slower let's see we're at caps off at 150 759 megabytes per second so that's nearly a hundred megabytes per second slower and for the read speeds cap out a 208 that's about what 62 megabytes per second slower so what is a huge difference I did some research and found out there's actually two different SSD models that Apple's thrown in these macbook airs so i'm going to show you guys how to make sure which SSD you got so we're gonna have to about this mac tab more info on this looks a little bit different because we are in line right here so we're going to head down to system report this will bring us back to the more familiar screen I'd head down to serial ata and from here that's going to show us the model number so right here Apple SSD TS 128 see that is the slower toshiba model that's the one from the test you guys just saw right now now on the other 11 inch macbook air that i tested that model is the sm 128 see that is the faster samsung model with the read speeds about 250 270 so i just wanted to make this video to let you guys know if he did pick up a new macbook air if you could please check out which model number you have let me know in a comment down below to see if this consistent with the 13 inch models or it is on both the 11 and 13 inch models from what i've seen so far most of the 11 inch models have the better faster SSD from samsung and most of the 13-inch model seems to have the slower toshiba model so if you guys enjoyed this video if you found it helpful make sure to please tweet this out so it helps others that link is down below feel free to subscribe if you're new to watching and I will catch you guys later
