Slow M4?

Fire_fly · 22 Dec 2012 at 13:18

I purchased an M4 SSD around the end of May earlier this year. Everything seemed to be running fine until I changed cases earlier this month from an Antec 900 to a Corsair C70. The computer does not feel as fast as it used to be on Boot up or when getting into applications.

AS SSD benckmark brings up these results which seem rather low.

Comparing them to the M4 results here

My drive is the 256GB M4 running 000F firmware.

Has anyone got an ideas of a possible solution?

Could be the drivers. Your drive is using iaStor, you may see a performance gain by switching to msahci.

I have just installed them, I have a slight improvement but nothing major.

yeah they only slightly imrove things,are you running the latest bios? that might help aswell

Not the latest, but I have everything else running stable so I would rather not play around too much with that unless I have to.
