What a stupid plug for CrApple. Lots of NVMe SSDs are capable of running 3200 to 3600MB/s Read/Write. Even PCIe 3 ones.

Many Windows laptops actually allow the replacement/swapping of SSDs so consumers can easily upgrade.

Oh... not that dumb iSheep would know since they have to deal with SOLDERED SSDs in their old MacBook Airs and M1 whatever! Dumb & dumber!
Your teenage kid is using your laptop with foul retard language. Please slap him and move him away from the keyboard.
Makes him look pale, little and weak writkng like that.

Please also tell him that what matters for a vast majority of people (if not all) is not peak read/write times, but random 4K block read times.
People who solely do copying big files for a living probably dont buy a MacBook Air.

The speeds does not look impressive, as mentioned by other it could be even faster even with PCIe 3.0 * 4, nevertheless what it is impressive is the cold boot time, still waiting for a deeper review from notebookcheck team where it will be compared with other MacOS and Windows laptops 😃

Please treat Apple's MacBooks as just another laptop and offer benchmark comparisons to Windows laptops. In this case the SSDs. Also technical details - are they PCIe Gen 3 or Gen 4?

It's not Apple's magic, it's just that they now use PCIe 4 instead of 3.
those (sequential) speeds aren't even pcie gen3x4 speeds, let alone pcie gen4x4.

Hi, this is quite a disappointing article from Notebookcheck, and it seems to be the recent trend. I used to come here to receive good reviews and analysis. Not just random facts with no context.

In this specific example it would have been good to compare the speeds to standard class NVME ssds from other major brands which are available for replacement on many common laptops. And as the other commenter highlighted to mention somewhere that it is soldered and repair-ability has fallen through the floor.

A recent storage benchmark result that was published on the MacRumors Forums website by a new owner of the M1 MacBook Air reveals impressive results: almost 2,200 MB/s write and over 2,600 MB/s read speed. These results come alongside a set of excellent Geekbench 5 scores of 1,745 and 7,665 points (single-core and multi-core).
