Boot up time with Samsung 830 SSD? - MacBook Pro 13" 2.9GHz Mid2012

Hey everyone,
Just got my first mac ever! Snagged a pretty nice deal on a MacBook Pro 2.9 GHz 13" Mid2012 model by getting it refurbished.
I immediately cloned my hard drive using CCC and installed a Samsung 830 SSD (256 GB). I believe I did install it correctly as using black magic speed test I put up some pretty good numbers --> 400 MB/s Write and 490 MB/s Read.
However, the boot up time seems a bit slow for a out of box MacBook Pro considering I upgraded the hard drive.
I was clocking in around 40 seconds... Is that abnormally slow?
I know its kind of silly looking timing the start up of your computer... I just expected faster, and this is my first hard drive installation... I hope I didn't mess up!
Thanks for your help in advance,
Weston

A bit simplifying :
there are two parts in boot process - one-before spinning thing, other - spinning thing to desktop.
First part is hardware inits, you can not speed it up. It is for sure longer for your MBP than for her - its normal, more hardware and it is more sophisticated so longer init.
Second part depends on HD (SSD) speed.
Say so - I have M4 SSD and second part is 1 to 2 spins until login window. Should be more or less same for you.
If it is not so - probably something is not good with filesystem and some config files, most probably due to cloning instead of install. Reboot from recovery, repair drive (first - drive as a whole, second - boot partition), then reboot permissions. reboot two times as normal. see what'll happen with timing.

Samsung 830 in Macbook pro 2011

hi there i have a macbook pro 2011. i'm still a student. right now i have 2 tb on this baby (2 1 tb samsung spinpoint in RAID 0) i get around 160 mbps read and write. it doesn't fill different. i noticed that i'm not a capacity hog. i just use 64 gb so my idea is to buy 2 128 gb samsung 830 ssd. it will cost me around 400. their read are 520, and write 320. so i'll be getting around 800-900 read and 500-600 write. do you guys think it's worth it. has anyone had this ssd in their macbook pro?

Just an update. I have the RAID working thanks to Mountain Lion. It has fixed the issue.
You can see a video of it with my notes in the description. I haven't been running it for long but it's very stable so far.

Why is the SSD on 2011 Macbook Air much slower then 2010 Macbook Pro with Samsung 830 SSD (less then half the speed) ?

Why is a laptop designed from ground up to use flash slower then a older laptop with a upgraded SSD from a 3rd party?
My old MBP is more then 2x the speed (read/write) with a SSD upgrade (Samsung 830) then my Air.
Any fixes or mods to boost the flash speed of the Air?

We would like you to show us how to do that.......Especially when the Samsung 830 will not fit the Air.....Please don't say duct tape....
Ok, scratch that idea. Let me think for a moment,,,em,,,em. OK I got it. Sell both units and buy a mid Macbook Air 2012 version.
(d-mn I'm good)

15" MacBook Pro only boots some times with SuperTalent 256GB SSD

I just bought a new MacBook Pro and it works as it should. I put an SSD in an external enclosure then plugged it into a USB port and cloned my MacBook Pro's drive to it. It worked and boots and runs from that external drive, wither via USB or Firewire.
Next I installed the SSD inside the MacBook Pro and it will only successfully boot one out of 5 times or so, it is random. When it does boot it works fast and well. I can put it to Sleep and wake it later and it is still working correctly. But why will it only boot one in 5 times or so?
It will always get the gray apple and usually the spinning gear but if the gear lasts more than a few seconds it will not boot regardless of how long you let it try.
I have tried OS 10.5.7 and 10.5.8. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Go read the topic with 71 pages about the Macbook Pro and SATA II. It is more than likely due to the latest firmware update that Apple released than crippled MANY hard drives.

Install a samsung 830 SSD in my macbook pro 2011.

I am trying to install a samsung 830 SSD in my brand new Macbook pro. Whenever I install it and boot the mac I get three beeps.
When I put the old HD back in it workes fine. The SSD workes fine on a windows machine.
I have seen other macbooks with this SSD work just fine.
What could be the problem?

The samsung SSD comes with a very handy USB cable so I hooked it up to my Imac and repartitioned the disk.
The SSD works without problems on the mac too apparently.
Unfortunately the Macbook still gives me the three beeps when I put the SSD back in.
This is quite frustrating, both the SSD and the Mac are brand new.
If I cant solve it myself which do I send back? The Macbook works fine with the original disk, the SSD works fine in any other PC.
I will try to clone my existing OSX to the SSD and let you know if it worked.
Even if that worked I still would not be confident everything is fine.
The last thing I want is to find out my Macbook is malfunctioning 2 days after the warranty is expired. (wouldnt be the first time )
Thanks for the help so far!

X220 Won't boot Samsung 830 SSD

I have a Lenovo X220 laptop with a 320GB Hitachi hard drive,
and it works just fine. But I decided I needed more speed,
so I bought a Samsung 830 SSD for it. I cloned the entire
X220 hard drive to the SSD (using a USB external case and
HDClone4), and everything looks fine on the SSD (when viewed
with Partition Wizard on another machine while the SSD is still
in the USB enclosure). But the SSD will not boot in the X220!
It starts, and in fact it gets as far as saying "Starting Windows",
and then moving the four color dots (of Windows 7) around a
little bit, and then it momentarily flashes the dreaded
white-on-blue screen (so fast you cannot tell what it says),
and then it enters the recovery-menu screen. Bummer!
I called Lenovo tech support and they essentially told me to
GET LOST because they "don't support" me installing an SSD
(even though the X220 User's Guide shows exactly that).
I've used HDClone4 several times in the past (to clone hard
drives for my stable of Lenovo T60 laptops), and it seems to
always work just fine. So why is this not working for my X220
and Samsung 830? Note that, while I don't expect Lenovo to
certify compatibility with every flea-bit SSD on the market,
this Samsung 830 is highly regarded by many well-respected
reviewers (Tom's Hardware, my favorite, in particular).
Has anyone here heard this song before? Is there something
peculiar about the X220 and/or the Samsung 830? I'd sure
appreciate any helpful advice. Thanks.
Solved!

Did you uninstall (+ reboot) Lenovo Rapid Boot before cloning the HDD drive ?

Kernel panic - trying to install a Samsung 830 ssd

Hi everybody,
please forgive me for my poor English.
I'm trying to install a Samsung 830 ssd with an optibay on my MBP early 2011. The ssd works fine, and I get a Sata 3 speed connection.
The first problem I found was that Disk Utility wasn't able to initialize it! "Posix error: i/o error" or "unable to locate memory".
So I inizitialized it with MacDrive on windows xp on another pc.
Here comes the second problem: when I boot with my ssd on the optibay there's a kernel panic, but when I boot with the superdrive everything is fine. So what can I do? Thanks for your help!
These are the details of the kernel panic

There's an update: I uninstalled Parallels. Then I connected the ssd to my mac with a sata usb cable, and everything worked fine, I initialized it and I tried to copy some files and it was ok..
So I put it into my optibay and booted Osx, this time no Kernel panic!
But now there's a new problem: when I try to copy files or create a folder on the ssd I got error -50 can't complete the operation.. Both with finder and muCommander.
So what shuold I have to do now?
I'm getting a little upset..

What external drives work well with a late 2011 MacBook Pro? I ask because I just found out the hard way that a Samsung EVO 840 does not. Also should I avail myself of something that works with Thunderbolt or Firewire?

What external drives work well with a late 2011 MacBook Pro (I7, Lion OS) apart from my Kingston flash and USB drive, and the SD drives that I use in my cameras and recording devices? I ask because I just found out the hard way that a Samsung EVO 840 does not. Also, should I avail myself of something that works with the Thunderbolt or Firewire connections? I'm looking to back up music and video files created and/or processed in Logic Pro and the Adobe Production Premium software suite (Premier Pro, After Effects, Audition, etc).

Hmm, not sure what problems you had installing this drive. The review here gives it good marks for Mac:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Electronics-EVO-Series-2-5-Inch-MZ-7TE1T0BW/produc t-reviews/B00E3W16OU
There does seem to be a lot of prep to make it work:
"1. Preparation to install your new shiny SSD
1.a You will need a migration tool (I used the Sabrent kit USB 3.0 to Sata that was suggested in these review) see link http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DQJME7Y/ref=oh_details_o03_s01_i01?ie=UTF8&p sc=1
1.b You will need to download a trim enabler (mid 2012 macbooks only support native trim with apple brand ssd's) I recommend going to cindori.org and downloading trim enabler version 3.xx. You can do this step before or after the OS migration
1.c You cannot use the Samsung SSD migration software *don't worry Mac has its own imaging/migration utility*"
Also in those reviews:
" Only down side when using this product in a Mac Mini is you will be required to download and install Trim Enabler so that your drive performs optimally on your Mac device. This is an Apple issue, not Samsung, but it is an extra step you will have to take after you install the hard drive, and any time you perform an OS upgrade." He rant's on.
Personally I only deal with OWC:
http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/
They are very knowledgable and if there's a problem they will gladly take back the item. (Never happened to me yet - 8 years and counting).
Just upgraded my 13" MBP 2011 to 120 GB for $79. Adobe CS 6 opens in 3 seconds! Awesome!
When I was in Chicago I had a pro photographer for a client. She wound up with 4 internal drives in her Pro, 4 external drives and an dual array locked in a steel vault in the basement. All from OWC. OK she was a bit paranoid. Great client though.
As far as value for price:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/MES3FH7500G/
500 GB for $130.
However as far as reliability is concerned:
http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014/01/30/are-ssds-reliable/
http://www.extremetech.com/computing/173887-ssd-stress-testing-finds-intel-might -be-the-only-reliable-drive-manufacturer
So sudden power loss is an issue with SSDs.
Personally I'd go with a moderate sized SSD internally and a conventional external for backup. An array would be the most reliable.

Request: AHCI Support for Samsung 830 SSD on gx660r

Hi Svet,
i have bought a Samsung 830 SSD for my gx660r notebook, but i realized that it is not recognized in the BIOS in AHCI mode.
The MSIHQ Flashing Tool says the following about my BIOS:
Mainboard: MS-16F1
PCB Version: To be filled by O.E.M.
BIOS Version: E16F1IMS VER3.0J
BIOS Date: 28.03.2011
EC-FW Version:
Could you provide me with a BIOS that works with my Samsung SSD?
I already donated some bucks.
And can you give me a hint how i can rescue my system in case the update fails?
As far as i know, my notebook does not have m-flash (at least i've seen no reference to m-flash), is there another way to restore the backup bios in case something goes wrong?
BTW: Im using the latest version of the flashing tool, but it does not offer the mode 2 (where i can point to a single bios file). Can you provide the modded bios as a zip/rar file so i can use it with mode1?
Many thanks,
Sascha

Nope, in a case of bad flash there is no recovery.
Else if everything goes fine, you can restore original BIOS if you want to do this for some reason.

To prevent using the wrong flasher[which can kill the notebook],
Tool automatically Disable Mode2 when notebook is detected.

Yes, ofc. Check PM

How can I get Time Machine to back up an external hard drive (iPhotos) that is attached to airport extreme base station. Note: Time machine is usb to macbook pro and external drive with iphotos is usb to airport extreme base station. Help please. Thanks!

How can I get Time Machine to back up an external hard drive (iPhotos) that is attached to airport extreme base station. Note: Time machine is usb to macbook pro and external drive with iphotos is usb to airport extreme base station. Help please. Thanks!

Once you have the drive connected to your Mac, click System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
Click Time Machine
Click Options
Be default, the hard drive will be Excluded from backups. Click the drive to highlight it, then click the "-" (minus) button at the bottom of the list to remove the drive from Excluded items.
The drive will be backed up on the next Time Machine pass
Everything above assumes that the hard drive has been formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as Time Machine will only backup drives in that format.

How to Force mac Thunderbolt External Display with Integrated GPU for Macbook Pro 2012?

I have been getting GPU Panic whenever I use external Thunderbolt Display.
Not sure whether this is software after(Mavericks) or hardware, if anybody could shed some light I would appreciate it.
The Current Discrete GPU will only work for few seconds 10 sec max before it became blank and require you to force shutdown. This also happened even without external display Blank and GPU Panic upon restart. So I suspected either the discrete GPU failure or software in Mavericks.
But at the moment I'm looking for workaround so I can use the intel intergrated GPU to use my Mac Thunderbolt External Display.
Thank you in advance for any input.

I have the same problem with an early 2013 macbook pro. gfxCardStatus ( http://gfx.io/ ) will allow you to force integrated and not do dynamic switching, however the external display still doesn't work.

I have two problems with my 2012 13" MacBook Pro. 1. Gray screen shows at startup 2. Randomly disconnects from network. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have two problems with my 2012 13” MacBook Pro.
Gray screen shows at startup
Randomly disconnects from network.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

First, open Terminal in your Utilities folder and paste this into the prompt line:
sudo update_dyld_shared_cache
Press RETURN. You will be prompted to enter your admin password which will not be echoed to the screen. Press RETURN again.
Next, boot the computer into Safe Mode.
Next, do the following:
Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?

Anyone else having extra long delivery time for the late 2013 macbook pro 15" 2.6ghz 1tb model?
As of today feb 15 i have been waiting for 78 days. Finland doesn't have an official apple store (only authorized resellers) It was my mistake because i should have bought from apple.com. But i think 2.5 months is too long and i have no information about when i can get it..

The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 256 GB SSD costs $2,000.
The low-end 15” rMBP with a 8 GB or RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,300.
With 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD it costs $2,500.
The high-end 15” rMBP with a 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD costs $2,600.
All cost $500 dollars more with a 1 TB SSD.
So the SSD size is not a differentiating factor unless you prefer 256 GB.
If you think you need 16 GB of RAM and a 512 GB SSD then you might as well spend the extra $100 for the high-end model.
The high-end model will make a difference on gaming and graphics-oriented applications.
They tend to run other applications at about the same speed.
Both models are rated with 8 hours of battery life.
Benchmarks on PhotoShop comparing memory sizes: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5659174?tstart=30
The speed was about 10% different between 8 GB and 16 GB models.
On other applications your mileage may vary.
Application benchmarks:
http://www.macworld.com/article/2059215/15-inch-retina-macbook-pro-review-a-tale -of-two-laptops.html
The low-end and high-end performed the about the same on non-graphics oriented applications.
Graphics oriented benchmarks:
On the Cinebench OpenGL benchmark the high-end was about twice as fast.
On the Unigine Heaven Benchmark benchmark they ran at about the same speed.
On the Unigine Valley Benchmark benchmark the high-end was about 1.5x as fast.

Having start-up issues with my 1st gen Macbook Pro

Hi everyone. I just started having start-up issues with my first generation Macbook Pro. It was working fine the other day when I last used it, but today I went to use it and it wont load up to my desktop...? It starts up (grey screen with the little swirly bar under the apple,) then it goes to a blue screen, then my background and dock appear, then (before any of my desktop files even show up,) it goes to a blue screen (that brightens up and then dims a little,) and it just keeps showing this with a little swirly progress symbol (shows when the screen is darker blue, then disappears when the screen is a brighter blue.) I've included a video that I took with my iPhone to show it situation. Any ideas as to what's wrong with it? Thanks in advance!

Safe Boot by restarting your computer while holding down the "shift" key. Safe booting disables all nonessential processes, often times allowing you to start up when you would otherwise crash.
As of OS X 10.5.6 Safe Boot deletes the dynamic loader shared cache location in the /var/db/dyld directory. A corrupt cache here can cause the blue screen crash. Once you restart normally, the cache will be recreated. This should take care of the issue.

Can anyone help me with Bakcing up my MacBook Pro???

Can anyone help me with Bakcing up my MacBook Pro???

Assuming you're looking for recommendations rather than experiencing specific problems, I would advise the following:
Buy 2 external hard disks. You don't say what model of MBP you have, but I would suggest buying the fastest type of drive your MBP supports. So, instead of going for a cheap USB2 drive, I would consider FW800 or Thunderbolt if your MBP supports it. It might cost more but will be faster.
One of the drives needs to be only as big as your internal HD. (Technically, it only needs to be as big as the amount of data you want to back up but to be safe, get one that matches your HD size). This HD can be used for a Bootable Clone. I use SuperDuper from Shirt Pocket, and a Freecom 1GB FireWire 800 drive. You can try it out for free, but it's worth buying a licence because once it's licenced you can do 'smart backups' where it only needs to copy files that have changed. The free version will have to do an entire clone each time which takes longer.
The second drive you should use as a Time Machine backup. The bigger this is, the more backups you can keep, so the further back in time you can go.
The reason to have both is that they both do different things.
SuperDuper is great for doing a complete 'emergency' backup every so often (i.e. before you go away, or at the end of each week, whatever). This disk means that if your MBP is lost, stolen or the HD goes pop, you can recover pretty much the whole system immediately, because you can boot from that drive on any Intel Mac that supports your bus type and OS version. I do an SD clone every so often and keep it hidden, in case anything happens to my MBP.
Time Machine backups are NOT bootable. However, in an emergency you can do a clean install of your OS and then get everything back by migrating from your last TM backup. But the best and most common use of TM backups is simply 'turning back the clock', i.e. you deleted something you wished you hadn't, or even saved over a piece of work you didn't mean to, or installed some software that has caused problems. As long as there was a recent TM backup, you can just get the older version of that file, or revert your whole system. I carry my TM drive around with me in my laptop bag and have it sat there attached and backing up the whole time I'm working.
Well worth having both strategies in place.
As an aside, if you keep confidential files (client or personal) on your MBP and carry it around somewhere like London as I do, it's also worth considering using FileVault so if your lappy gets nicked you don't have to worry about them getting at all your info. And if you have a clone at home, in the worst instance, all you really have to worry about is just buying a new laptop and restoring it. Expensive, sure, but at least your data is safe.
