Just wanted to confirm that the actuall SSD will work (with adapter of course) with my MBA?
The read speeds are good, but it seems that the write speeds are a little slower than the stock SSD according to OWC:

While I'd much prefer something newer/faster/bigger, I dont have the money for it & as I mentioned before, I have 2 of these things laying around...


Thanks
