AS SSD Benchmark benchmarks!

Thanks mate, though tbh, I don't really know what I'm looking at with these scores...

I purchased these drives elsewhere for £75 each, which is a great price for an SSD imo.

I'm extremely happy with my purchase tbh (well my xmas present!!! :D ), really glad that I decided to get these instead of another GTX280.
 
My SSD is in for repair, getting all green seeing all these scores being reminded of what I'm missing.

Can't wait to get some of those Davy ;)
 
I'm happy enough with them, although the scores I get with this tool now are quite a bit less than the one I posted here, infact some of the writes have halved... :confused:

Surely they wouldn't degrade this quickly?

It's not as if I've been writing any large files to them neither..

I'm going to wipe them completely, and then do a clean install of Win7 to see if that makes any difference.
 
4 x Kingston SSDNow! 40Gb in RAID 0
Stock speed i920 with 6Gb RAM Intel ICH10R Controller

I have noticed there can be quite marked variations in the performance - these 3 runs were performed one after the other and although the sequential read is quite consistent the overall scores aren't.

The slow write of the Kingston really drags the overall scores down as well.

Cheers for posting that, it seems that mine is probably set up correctly and the write speeds are normal :)

You should have installed it in ACHI mode, win 7 has default drivers that work perfectly, you'd also get trim support. I think you can edit the registry then switch to ACHI though.

Not quite the case here I'm afraid. I attempted to install win 7 when the drive was set to AHCI but it produced an error message saying that it couldn't be used (can't remember exactly why), tried in both the ICH9R and Gigabytes own sockets. Looked for sata drivers prior to win 7 install but none of them worked.

As for enabling AHCI after win 7 is installed, I've done the reg trick, but it still crashes on windows load. The only time I did get it to work on AHCI was with some strange Gigabyte RAID drivers (and the reg trick) - but my benchmark speeds dropped by about 20 mb/s
 
4 x OCZ Vertex 30gb : Raid 0 Striped @ 128 with partition aligned to 128k.

Think the ICH10 chipset is bottlenecking them a bit but got some more tweeking to do. If I cannot get the full speed out of the ICH10 then ill get a hardware raid card that can handle the bandwidth.

Yowsers, that's ridiculously fast. Out of interested though, do you find it any faster in the real world for everyday computing, than say a single ssd? Or are you using programs that specifically need it?

Yes that the Joys of fragmentation and lack of Trim currently with raid 0.

Hell yes :) Windows 7 startup / shutdown incredibly fast. Application starting instant. Handling of large photoshop images fast and clean. Generally there seems to be no lag between anything :)
