Over the last month, Air models have been shipping with two different SSD, the "SM128C" and Toshiba's "TS128C." The SM implies Samsung is the manufacturer, says MSNBC.
The Samsung drive, when benchmarked, shows off 260MB/s read and 210MB/s write speeds compared to the Toshiba which has 210MB/s read and 185MB/s write.
Samsung and Apple have not confirmed so there is no way to know which drive you will get if you are in the market for an Air, but if accurate it may pay to wait a bit longer to ensure you have the faster drive.
