But my system currently operates at just SATA 1 speeds (only 1.5 Gbit are negotiated). I've read that the 6Gbit SATA 3 speed of the SSD would be scaled down to SATA 2 speed because my Macbook doesn't support SATA 3. If/when I go ahead, is it advisable to keep my whole edit on an external HDD with the main files, or should I keep the renders/cache on the SSD?Ĭurrently running OS X El Capitan 10.11.5. I have buy a new Intel 520 SSD for my Macbook (late 2008). Would I notice the difference between the two whilst video editing, given the price difference and compatibility issues/limits? (Would SATA limitations effectively slow the Pro to EVO levels?) you the benefits of setting up a striped RAID 0 on any Macbook or Macbook Pro 2008-2.

My questions are: will both the 850 EVO and 850 Pro actually work in my model, old as it is? : 240GB 2.5 SSD Solid State Drive for Apple MacBook (13-inch, Aluminum, Late 2008) (13-inch, Early 2009) (13-inch, Mid 2009) (13-inch, Late 2009).

SoftRAID, Big Sur and the New M1 Macs Mac OS X supports RAID 0. The idea is to give my MacBook Pro a couple more years of being able to edit HD video (currently it slows to a halt). There's lots of stuff out there about upgrading the innards to SSD, and I've narrowed down my choices to Samsung 850 Evo or Pro, but there are a few specifics I've not found covered elsewhere.
