If the results were unexpected, then your testing methodology and/or equipment is flawed.

The system was running fine, a clean installed MBP 2009. All tests have been repeated several times and results were consistent over several runs.

PS. to clarify, I didn't write this review but I was there when the benchmarks were ran.

Yet the results were unexpected for me, someone who writes reviews about storage and notebooks.

Can I see some links to published articles you've written, along with some way to show that they are, indeed, written by you?

The 2009 SATA controller is messed up. :(
 
And while you're at it, also do a 2008 MBP, a 2010 MB and include a 80GB and 160GB Intel G2. Thanks.

Well the 2010 15"/17" MBPs have the Intel SATA controller and the 2010 13" MB/P has a better nVidia SATA controller..

But thanks for being sarcastic.
 
Within a test setup there are always limitations. First people were asking to include Intel SSDs, then to include updates (which turned out to be covered) and now a 2010 MBP is requested.

Well he probably doesn't have the funding to arrange all that. Especially if no one is willing to pay for his review ;)
 
Hello my friend,

I run the largest tech website on my country. I have money to send you for your review but I'm having trouble getting it out of my country as the amount is too large, can you send me 500/us dollars to facilitate our dealings.

When I recieve your funds I will then send payment for your highly anticipated review.

Cheers,

Mr. Ngobe Ngayaka
