I know that benching system disk is not the way to do serious testing.
I just wanted to see what benchmarks would show and i'm only getting about 150mb/s sequential reading, which is waaayyyy under what it supposed to be reading at... or not ???

Could anyone who's in possession of Corsair Force3 120gb disk as a boot disk do an HD Tune benchmark for sequential reading ?

#EDIT1# Lessons learned today:
1. Not all benchmarking software suitable for certain drives (to do with sandforce ?);
2. Dont forget to switch from IDE mode in BIOS when switching from old rickety HDD to lightning fast SSD...
3. I know **** about SSD's apparently... need to study... :D

Write faster than read ??? O_o ? How so ?

I'm still on original FW 1.3.2. Wouldn't it be one of the recalled disks ?

Latest FW according to Corsair is something like 5.0.2, but do i have to update ?

I am "stable", except the speed is (relatively) sucky at the moment...
