egehanclk Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Hi! Today I bought corsair force ls and replace it with my macbook pro's hdd. I've installed os x and tried to do some speed tests. After test I was very surprised... Test results says that writing speed is 95-100 MB and reading speed is 350-460 MB. Anyone who knows why is it so slow ? Please help me.. Thanks... Macbook Pro (mid 2012) - (Macbook Pro 9.2) Corsair Force LS 120 GB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 If you are using Black Magic Speed test, it tests using incompressible data. The speeds Corsair advertises are from a compressible data benchmark, which is ATTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 For Windows, if you want to see if your drive performs within Corsair's advertised speeds, you would use ATTO. As for Mac, an older version of Black Magic Speed test will show performance similar to Corsair's advertised speeds as it would have been a compressible data benchmark. In my opinion, benchmarks are really nothing, When you install an SSD, you would notice the difference in speed over a mechanical HD instantly. Most of the time between a high-end SSD and a value oriented SSD, most users will not notice a difference in performance between the two real time excluding some tasks.

Yellowbeard Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Benchmarks can be helpful but they aren't the only thing you need to consider. Does the machine start the OS faster? Does it "feel" faster when you use it? I'd measure success and performance by feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElettroPassion Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 hello, I can advise you to look for the right program to verify performance.... Also need to consider the limit of the data exchange on your notebook construction specifications the corsail LS is very good ... for old pc fits very well aI operating systems (XP, 7, etc.) I found difficulty 'with the GS series FORCE ...., fits well in windows 7 but for other systems is not the best install this unit ' the LS i consider it a good compromise.... ADAPTABILITY - Performance for all PC.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
