Discussion MBP + M4 = OMG!

[JustSomeJoe]

Just replaced the hard drive in my MBP with a Crucial M4 (256 Gig) SSD, all I can say is OMG! it's FAST; power button to desk-top in less than 12 seconds .
Most apps load in one bounce (even XCode loads in two) .

I have had the M4 on test in an old laptop for the past month, last week I noticed a firmware update was released to fix the stalling issues, so I decided it was time to make the move; so far I'm loving it .

The recent firmware update for the MBPs seems to have done something positive, even if it isn't marketed that way. My 2011 15" MBP w/256GB Vertex 3 is really really fast now. There's not even time for the cool spinning boot-up dohicky. ...just the Apple logo and then straight into the OS. Its nasty-fast...the way it needs to be and should be.

Its really got me spoiled.
