i m using 128GB SSD Kingston SSDV+ on my current 2009MBP (the same controller used in new MBA)... so far the experience is good for almost 2months !

now anticipating for the new 2011 MBP

Very nice. The OCZ was the one I had my eye on initially. Mind sharing where and how much you bought it for?

Added on December 13, 2010, 12:58 amI looked at the Kingston also before I bought the Corsair. Does anyone know why the specs on the older V model is higher than the specs on the V+ model? I'm referring to the read/write speeds on the retail box.

I used to own MacBook white fews year back. SC2 out that machine is outdated so i get Alienware m15x been using that for some time and miss Mac alot haha. After 6 month carrying this most powerful laptop in the universe and most heavy laptop in 20th century, and now i'm back to MAC.

MBP 13 . The next day i decided to upgrade the HDD to SSD(OCZ Vertez 2 240gb), and here we go. The boot up time is longer wtf hahaha....

That's wierd, how long was the boot-up before and after the OCZ? I'm also thinking of putting in an SSD in my old MacBook. Hope to give it new life.

Now it take 1 minute +++ so boot up. SSD is fast just that the bootup is slow. Something must be wrong I just dunno why yet. Still searching for solution.

Soonwai, I bought the OCZ VERTEX 2 SSD 240GB at Czone and cost me RM1950. I put it in my Acer running Windows 7 in my office. Booting time is not very fast, about 45 secs, but resuming the system takes about 15 secs. I configured the laptop to go to hibernate when I close the lid; just like my MBA. Another thing is that I order a caddy to put my old hard drive in the DVD drive from ebay (about US18 plus shipping), to be used as a secondary drive or another boot system. After all, why waste a space when I dont use DVD often. Dont know whether it will work or not; just ordered on sunday!

Hm, getting it from my uncle's friend which he has a store, selling me good price .. Well heard before, taking out optibay and replace it with SSD. Then MBP got SSD + HDD. Will it void the warranty?

hi all of you here, i'm new to mac..have been using MBP 13" since July this year..early this month(Dec), my MBP started to have a problem which is screen turn to blurry and got a messages telling me that i need to restart my MBP, it happen quite often now..whether after booting it or while i'm surfing internet. any solution is really2 needed here bcoz i'm using it to make a presentation this weekend.
thanks in advance..

to MBP & MBA user(Buying Online via store.apple.com/my) can we attend the program that Machines or Epicentre organize for teaching on how to use MAC? & normally where can i claim warranty from? thanks

hi everyone, can i know how is the heat distribution on the basic Macbook? Since the unibody enclosure is not aluminium, i wonder does it get hot after a few hours of usage?

@david890701 yes it does get slightly warm. that's why Apple advises notebook users to use their portable on a firm, solid surface, not your lap )

how bout the place where u put your palm on? Does it get hot there? I used to have a compaq that is scotching hot when i'm trying to type using the laptop. thats why i wanna make sure this issue is totally gotten rid of before i get my mac

Yes you can still feel the warmness on the top on the latest MacBook white. I bought a unit only 2 months ago for my brother. The mbp alu model, which I am using is similarly warm.

However surprisingly the latest MacBook air 11" I do not feel any warmness on the top even after 3 to 4 hours continous usage. You can only feel the heat on the base of the notebook

first of all, u dont need to double post. no one answered you because you didnt give enough information. maybe u can give us the exact error message? a photo even. it'll be a huge help. are you sure the screen turned 'blurry' not 'dark'?

u can claim warranty from any authorized apple reseller in the world. not sure about the classes. however, the videos here ( http://www.apple.com/findouthow/mac/ ) are pretty helpful. should cover everything you need to know

that is too...too....

for Machines,yes,you can join their training.EpicCentre not sure

warranty you may sent to below address

Upgrade my MBP 2010 HDD to Seagate Momentus XT 500GB....
Loving it so far, 1st boot was slow though...
Currently waiting for my nearby Apple Reseller to restock their 8GB ram kit...

3rd boot was the fastest for me. Almost as fast as the SSD. Why not just use normal ram from Kingston or Corsair? Isn't the RAM from Apple Reseller expensive?

The guy told me it's RM688... Kingston.... I think I'll rather pay a little more for the guarantee...

RM688 for 2 pcs 4GB?and you trade in back the 2pcs of 2gb?
