Hi ive just installed a Vertex2 and when using Crystaldiskmark my read.write speeds are way below the specs.

However when using Atto my Read/Write are correct,is the sandforce controller not really configured to work with crystaldiskmark as my old C300 was fine,though it used a different controller?

Should i use Atto and ignore the low benchmark speeds with crystaldiskmark?

Edit:

My Write speeds with Atto are only 150mb when they should be 275?

It seems after more research using several benchmarking programs which i have done tonight, might slow down the write speeds so i will have to check again in a few days.

Well after leaving my PC on all night/day,im assuming the drive has settled down after me running too many Benchmarks,my results are now what they should be all but 10mb for the read -25mb or so for the writes.

Last night i was only getting 140-150mb for my writes so no doubt Crystaldiskmark has messed the drive up a bit,OCZ Garbage Collection has done its business and sorted the drive out.

Trouble is as i thought the drive was maybe faulty i have since ordered a Crucial M4,so i now have 2 brand new SSDS,a tad impatient i think :eek:
