Hyper-Threading technology for up to 16 virtual cores.Turbo Boost dynamic performance up to 2.66GHz.12MB of fully shared 元 cache per processor.Two 2.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5620 “Westmere” processors.My boot time is a mere 35 seconds on a 5,400 RPM, 10.6.8, Early 2011 17" MBP 4GB RAM.ġ4 seconds button to desktop, 13" mid 2009, Seagate Hybrid (XT750) drive.
(no more than 80% filled)ġ0.6 is faster than 10.5 or 10.7 in tests.įirefox + the broadband tweaks, Ad Block Plus, NoScript, Wireless N router on 25mb/ps down, is about the best one can do with browsing, my pages load in about 1 second, even faster than Safari which is the fastest browser on Mac's. Only max the RAM and hard drive can be increased to 7,200 RPM, a SSD for boot and 7,200 RPM for data, nothing much else really in hardware.įresh OS X install, software update fully, install programs from fresh sources, user content last to only 50% of the drive filled, that's the best one can do in software performance. I am interested in upgrading my internals as far as I can Speculation only, Apple is currently pushing Thunderbolt which is much faster that USB 3. I know the new Macbooks are dropping soon with 3.0s No, unless you have a PCI Express slot and can use a adapter. I cant be the only one who wants to boost the USBs.Ĭan anyone out there answer my questions? and if so (5) which drivers would perform best with the Mac?ĭoes anyone know if (1), if it is possible to upgrade the USB 2.0s on the MacBook Pro (2010) to USB 3.0s? (3) If not, would it likely work with Mountian Lion?Īnd Lastly (4), How is it done? Im sure its pretty straitforward after popping off the base plate and getting a look inside the Notebook, but Im actually going to purchace new RAM to increase the speed at which my Mac runs, and new USBs, and possibly even a boosted HDD to throw inside and Instead of taking the back off so many times, I kindof wanna do it all at once.
(2) will the new hardware work with Lion? Im not sure if there would be any type of hardware-recognition issues associated with the upgrade.
Does anyone know if (1), if it is possible to upgrade the USB 2.0s on the MacBook Pro (2010) to USB 3.0s? I know the new Macbooks are dropping soon with 3.0s on em, and Instead of swapping out computers entirely, I am interested in upgrading my internals as far as I can, just to keep up with the curve and to increase my Macs performance.
