Although the new 15 ″ MacBook Pro has not included the renewed Intel processors of the Broadwell series, if it has brought other novelties under its arm such as the trackpad with Force Touch technology or the new flash storage based on PCIe that Apple had proclaimed what was up 2.5X faster delivery than SSD storage in previous generation computers, with performance that could go up to 2GB / s.
The French MacGeneration website has carried out a performance test of this PCIe SSD with a basic input equipment. We refer to the 2.2GHz version of the 15-inch MacBook Pro Retina with 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage that would fall within what Apple had previously claimed. The result is impressive read and write speeds that exceeded 2GB / s and 1,25GB / s, respectively in QuickBench 4.0.
The results are really, at best, spectacular. These read and write speeds are much higher than the speeds achieved for example in the basic model of the 13 ″ MacBook Air which was also updated with a faster SSD storage unit that doubled those of the previous model being now very similar to 13 ″ MacBook Pro Retina performance.
It's the fastest storage ever installed in an Apple laptop. It only took 14 seconds for transfer an 8.76GB file to your computer, compared to 32 seconds for the previous generation. On the other hand, with small files, the read and write speeds exceed one gigabyte per second.
Like the 13 2015-inch MacBook Pro Retina and 13 2015 ″ MacBook Air, this new 15-inch MacBook Pro Retina uses a solid state drive made by Samsung. This drive doesn't use the NVM express SSD protocol like the latest 13-inch model does, which suggests future teams could see performance improvements.
I want to buy a 13-inch retina mackbook. I am a beginner so I want to learn how to handle said equipment in an excellent way to take advantage of all its performance. Who can give me the training and how much does it charge? Thank you.
