2012 BTO Macbook Pro SSD speeds

[Jeremy M.]

Hey guys!

Quick question, does anyone know what drive Apple is using in the non-Retina display 2012 Macbook Pros?

Is it the Samsung 830? Alternatively, does anyone have any benchmarks of their BTO?

Thanks!

It is the 830 I believe.

It's been verified that at least some have the 830.

From anandtech review.

"My Retina MacBook Pro was the upgraded model with a 512GB SSD, featuring Samsung’s PM830 controller. This is the same controller as in the Samsung SSD 830, which I’ve long felt was the best pair for Mac users who wanted an SSD upgrade. "

Thanks, I'd read that. But I think the OP was asking specifically about the non-retina MBP.

My 2012 MacBook Pro (non-retina) came with an Apple branded Samsung 830. It actually shows up as the same name as it does in the Retina models, SM512E.
