Hi,

I have just purchased one of these drives below and decided to see what the speed benchmark tests are like I have attached an image of the results could someone let me know if they are good or not? I'm using it on an gigabyte 890fxa-ud5 motherboard and updated drives its also running in AHCI mode.

Thanks,

Hi

Do you know what the difference is in the new firmware? At the moment i dont seem to be experiencing any BSOD or freezing

Corsair haven't released that info.

My guess would be that's it contains the same fixes the OCZ crowd got in 2.09. That made the drive more stable for most people but also made it a bit more 'reserved' (read 'slower').

If it's working fine with 1.2, stick with it.
