Google is our best friend: TRIM

You can enable TRIM yourself. I'm using 2x Apple SSD, by default the TRIM wasn't enable. I have to manually enable it. Neither I get TRIM on my other older Apple SSD. Strangely, maybe only on newer model you'll get TRIM enable by itself.

Sorry bro got a silly question. I'm using OCZ Vertex 2, is it illusion or the SSD is getting slower compare with the time i bought. When i boot up it take more than 30 sec .

Never use OCZ Vertex series, maybe other owner can share their input?

Hi guys, my superdrive is getting wonky. And i'm thinkin of removing it alltogether and add another hard disk at its place. My question is;

1.where can i find the data doubler in malaysia?

2. If were to repair it. How much would it cost?

Brw im using the late 2009 mpb 13"

Regars

@ forger
1. IINM, OWC doesn't have resellers. so please get it directly
2. last time I asked, they wanted RM900 to replace the drive, cos it was out of warranty. at that price i'd disable the drive n use an external USB drive

is that possible?
i tried using mba superdrive but it wouldnt work

External USB drive doesn't necessary be Apple flavor. Most USB external DVD burner works in OSX. I personally tested Buffalo, Asus, Samsung.

@ BRY7 of course MBA Superdrive doesn't work, its mentioned on the website that it only works with certain newer Macs.

I've used 3rd party drives... no problems so far, USB & FW both.

ehhh. can i upgrade ram for MBA by myself?
which model u recommended?

@RaplaJingga IIRC MBA's ram are not self-upgradable. Check your user manual and see if there is a section on upgrading rams..

the RAM is soldered to the motherboard, so no. if u want 4gb u have to opt for it when purchasing online. if u already bought it, then the only way is to sell ur MBA n buy a new one with 4gb

Thanks for the great info ya.

How long have you been using the Vertex 2...?

I've got mine for 4 months already, 240GB , more than half filled, heavy downloading, just updated to 10.6.8...

and i've tested it, 13 seconds from startup chime to desktop...

Or most likely you have something eating up processor time during boot. Just check if you have installed anything else after that may affect your speed, such as the Steam client and telling it to load at startup.

i've been using 6 months ++. WHere to update? how to check the version?

Hi there, i needed to upgrade my mbp 15 with 2 x18 ssd
Is there anyway to upgrade without voiding warranty?
And what kind of adapter i needed for this ssd to compatible with my mbp?
After upgrading do i need to do anything? Like installing driver and do some tweak?

I'm sorry but what's the best 500GB hard drive for the MBP 13" 09' currently ? And cheap also.

they are all he same bro, but i think WD and Samsung is the cheapest
