That doesn't matter, since it was obvious you were talking about disk intensive operations. Booting up is not really disk intensive in the big scheme of things.That's why it's a poor yard stick for comparing SSD speeds since you're likely to see about 1-2 seconds difference between different SSDs.I said *disk* intensive tasks. Read posts carefully and quote people accurately. One such example is booting. If you don't understand that, there's not much we can do for you.
Not all SATA drives are created equally even within their respective revisions (2.0, 3.0) but it is safe to say that a fast SATA 2.0 drive is generally trounced by a fast 3.0 drive. The following article shows that not only does the OWC SATA 3.0 drive beat the MBA's fastest SATA 2.0 SSD (the Samsung), it THRASHES it. To save you the read, it was found to be an average of 243% faster.

I could put you in front of computers running different SSDs and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference in booting up and most common tasks. I've tried to show you the real world benchmarks and these numbers like 243% are meaningless.
You're so fixated on synthetic benchmarks, but you do not understand what they are saying and what it actually means in the real world. It's also pretty clear that you do did not read my previous post and that you're as stubborn as a mule, hence any further conversation is futile.
