IS Your M4 MacBook Air's 256GB Storage a WRITE SPEED NIGHTMARE?
Is your M4 MacBook Air's 256GB storage a write speed nightmare? In this video, we dive into the world of storage and explore whether the base model MacBook Air's 256GB SSD is holding you back. From video editing to general usage, we put the MacBook Air's storage to the test to see if it's a write speed nightmare due to its small and limited SLC cache size and slow TLC NAND speed or if it's still a capable machine. If you're considering buying a new MacBook Air or already own one, this video is for you. We'll cover the benchmarks, the results, and what it means for your workflow. So, is 256GB of storage enough in 2025? Let's find out!
