When Apple released its redesigned MacBook Air in October 2010, much was fabricated from the switch to flash storage using a custom-built Mini PCI Express form factor SSD drive. It took some weeks but these SSDs would ultimately be released because the commercially available Toshiba Blade X-gale SSD module, model TS128C. Now we’re seeing user reports showing MacBook Airs equipped with a second, even faster SSD with a SM128C part number — the “SM” hinting at its presumed Samsung manufacturing origins. Samsung’s SSD manages as much as 260MBps read and 210MBps write speeds in comparison to Toshiba’s 210MBps read and 185MBps write performance. For sure, it’s hardly unusual for Apple to multi-source components. And a up to date decision to source parts from Korea’s Samsung would were a sensible move to maintain just-in-time supply lines fully stocked following the spate of disasters in Toshiba’s home country of Japan. Unfortunately, there doesn’t look like any way of confirming which SSD you’re about to buy without cracking open the retail box and running the OS X System Profiler. Good luck with that.
