My SSD and windows 7 scores

_Jimlad_ · 6 Feb 2010 at 09:12

My SSD, which is a 80GB Intel X25-M, has been running fine for 3 months no issues, however my win7 score tester thingy said ‘scores needed to be refreshed’ so i can the assessment and the Primary Hard Drive went from 7.8 to 7.4, i know this is scoring system is not by any stretch a definitive benchmark, but it has bothered me a little as to why, i have just installed the intel toolbox and ran the maintenance tools, also on the December firmware. The only changes i have made to my system is replace my 2nd drive (WDSE16 500GB) with a Seagate 1TB, any thoughts guys?

here is my info if this means anything to anyone

dont pay attention to windows scores as they are not accurate.

Apparently they change the scoring every now and again to take into consideration new hardware. But as above, ignore
