non-TRIM controllers. With TRIM controller an operating system informs a solid-state drive (SSD) which blocks of data are no longer considered in use and can be wiped off. For the third-party SSD you have to turn the TRIM feature on but be aware that thus you lose Apple\u2019s warranty.<\/li>\n<li>Improvements implemented by Apple didn\u2019t touch the RAM capacity or hard disk form-factor but enhanced the RAM speed and video chip capabilities by switching the vendor.
