Hello all,
Today, I received my Crucial m4 128Gb SSD for my 2011 MacBook Pro. I installed it in my main hard drive slot without a hitch, got OS X Lion installed and all my information migrated over without a hitch. Here is my problem. I downloaded the Disk Speed Test, and I consistently got a write speed of ~200Mb/S (+/-10Mb/s) and a read speed of around 480Mb/S. So, I decided to enable Trim (Using Trim Enabler 2.1, but first I erased all the free space in single user mode at the root prompt), and these are the speeds that I consistently get with Trim enabled. Are these normal speeds, and if not, how can I fix these speeds (mainly the write speed)? I've searched a good amount, but I can't come up with a decent answer/explanation of why this is happening.
