MacBook Pro AHCI vs NVMe PCIe SSD Benchmark

[@rickvestuto]

Thank you for this Video
I have a question
What about the 960 "PRO" ??
Would it make a better differance?

[@niteshvishwakarma6709]

I have a MacBook Air early ‘15, im going to upgrade my Storage, im not able to get M.2 direct to my mac, so I’ll be using a Ssd to m.2 converter, will that impact on performance? Please let me know

[@muhammadsalbiyath4212]

If we use evo 970 we should use additional adapter to install SSD right? whether the performance will decrease?

[@JL-os7ml]

Very good comparison, thank you. Can you also compare the temperature of these SSDs？ Because I've upgraded my A1502 with Intel 600p, but the cpu temperature is about 5-8℃ higher than the original. And sometimes I feel my 600p has slower response than Apple SM0128G.

[@m-hadiassi2742]

hello there, I got 300 MB write and 700 MB read on may macbook pro (retina 13 inch mid 2014) I can buy the adapter to install the 970 evo, but will it make a big difference regarding the write or read speed? since I read before that the mid 2014 are different from early 2015 models which have better or faster response? Thanks in advance

[@channelaapl7492]

MacBook Pro Early 2015 has "PCIe 3.0 ×4 8.0 GT/s (31.5 Gbit/s)" link speed,
but MacBook Pro Mid 2014 has only "PCIe 2.0 ×2 5.0 GT/s (8 Gbit/s)" link speed.
It's big difference, please check here 👇

What I want to see is the test between 970 evo plus versus the intel 760p with the same storage as well. I've read that intel has better specs making the temperature lower and battery consumption is very minimal too. I'm planning to upgrade my 2015 13" Macbook Pro but haven't seen any actual testing on Intel 760p.

macOS 10.14 Mojave's NVMe driver not support Samsung 970 EVO *Plus*. Be careful ☺

@@channelaapl7492 hi, if 970 evo plus is not used then can I use "SSD Western Digital Black SN750 PCie" for late 2013 MBP (Me864)

[@EM8844]

wondering if my macbook air 2014 early shipped with ahci or nvme ssd?

[@morote1985]

hello could you please help me because if the ssd nvme reaches speeds it is read and write 3500, why does it only reach 1500 speed? Is it the subject of the processor or the characteristics of the computer? thanks

[@channelaapl7492]

MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2015) only support PCIe 2.0 x4 lane (5.0GT/s), Apple start supporting PCIe 3.0 x4 lane (8.0GT/s) after MacBook Pro (15-inch, Mid 2015).

I don't think you got the nvme drivers for the 960 evo drive. I have it on Windows and I got 3200mb/second read and 1400 write.

[@channelaapl7492]

Thank you comment.
>I got 3200mb/second read and 1400 write.
Yes, it's true speed, but MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) limited link speed 5.0 GT/s.
On the other hand MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2015) model has 8.0 GT/s link speed.
I tested on MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015), so this result ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

[@heymavericklim]

Hi does this mean on A1502 13” MBP 2015, actually the performance of 960 EVO & 970 EVO is pretty close due to equipment limitations. Am I right?

[@changtimwu]

My MBP is 15-inch 2013 late. With Samsung PM961, I got a similar result with yours.

[@zhenwang4108]

it's mainly because of the compatibility issue with PCIE3.0, the one tested in this video does not support PCIE3.0 which means the bottleneck of the laptop itself leads to the lower performance. or to say, this test is a little bit unfair...

[@nayak4636]

MBP Early 2015 with apple ssd ( 600/800) read write speeds, should I upgrade to 970 evo?!

[@ЖеняСтроцень]

if you don't have enough memory like 128 or 256 gb so you could easily upgrade

[@gerald4027]

Would these name's help in the computation of how fast a frog can have a organism or would I have to get 8 channel quantum memory?

[@sebastiansalamon7271]

you have the samsung 970 evo externally or internally?????????????????? 970 works on macbook pro ??

[@channelaapl7492]

Samsung 970 works on MacBook Pro ;)

How much these storage?

Can I have 970evo on mid-2014 A1398 model??

[@gabeame4666]

yes, you can but you have to buy an adaptor

[@chloemcholoe3280]

just a pure speed test? aww
we can get those anywhere. you wasted an opportunity to do a boot time test etc!
