AS SSD/HDD Benchmark Thread

Thanks for sharing that! Though it doesn't seem putting two in RAID0 helps a whole lot. Good to know!

Depends on the use. When checking with HD-Tune and 128K Reads they deliver about 370MB/s MAX, 180 MIN and 272 AVG.

With 256K Reads they do a MAX of 428, MIN 300 and 359 AVG. If you do a lot of sequential reads/writes, like Video editing, that comes in handy, doesn't give you much advantage on the IOPS side of life i think. At best 15-20% increase in speed would be my guess.

Will redo the test, when i ran TRIM over it again and corrected a that BAD SECTOR 31K thingy. Maybe they're not at full speed...

monstrous score!
how long did that take you?

A lot longer than i expected, was a good 2 hours i think, not sure though, cant remember now.

No idea why this is so low. running FW 1.41. I'm pretty much giving up with this stuff.

Upgrade to firmware 1.5

Clean out your temp files and flush the recycle bin to initiate the TRIM command.

^ I'm running Vista, still need trim? 1.5 FW Will work ok with Vista? I keep this setup pretty clean. I don't use it all the time and I have 10 out of 30 gigs free.

 

[Slaymate]

Vista? OK, Vista Doesn't have TRIM Support. You'll have to use the Garbage Collection Utility. OCZ recommends you run it at least once a month.

Yea, there's definitely a problem there. You should be way higher than 79 with an SSD. Do as Slaymate suggests and if you are still running slow then I would RMA the drive. You might have a bum controller.

 

[Antec-User]

Hmmm... I'll mess with it later probably. I just hate going down to the basement to have to do anything with the computer. Not a motivating environment.

WTH??? Cleaned everything up with the garbage utility, updated to FW 1.5, cleaned up again, cleaned with CC Clean and emptied trash can.. STILL a low score.. I only have 2 games on here and nothing was running when I did this.

CAN you defrag an SSD? Does it DO anything? I'm running in AHCI also. Does your clock effect the results? I'm running a conservative 3.5 now. Does my BOARD (SB) Have something to do with this? SB750...

I don't what these scores posted until I KNOW I've topped out.
