And it’s also linked to the M1 SoC.
The Apple M1 SoC shocked everyone with its speed – in benchmarks, it is faster than the top Intel and AMD processors. At least for single-core performance. But there is another component in the new MacBook Airs that has significantly improved performance. It’s about SSD.
And in this context, again, one cannot fail to mention the M1 because the SSD controller (Apple says – its design) is integrated into it. Thanks to the new multi-channel controller, it was possible to increase the speed of the SSD by about two times compared to its predecessor. So, the read speed was 2675 MB/s; the write speed was 2190 MB/s.
