BIOS's vary somewhat, it'll be in there, you just have to look around for it. However, it seems from your last post that you`ve managed to sort it.
 
Well not really I am now going through the cloning procedure again with my other drives disconnected I don't want system reserved to appear as a partition /separate /f this should be part of the operating system ,and not appear on its own I think I won't delete well probably wouldn't be allowed anyway
 
As soon as I plug my ssd drive the intel one that I just want to use as storage it creates a system reserved how can I format the drive so to free up space the intel tool won't allow it to format thinks it is my boot drive
 
Well just bench marked at sequential read /write 284/266
Random read write (iops) 47389 and 45587
Ops setting max reliability

73gb used

Next improvment will be a mob with sata 3 maybe ?

Anyway how do I format my ssd drive for storage ,also another note I have had to use google chrome to get the latest samsung magician downloaded and working why.?
 
Ok sorted finally got to format e drive so now got 111gb to play with its a much slower drive compared to the samsung on the sequential writes and iops writes .oh well my windows status performance has now gone to 7.5 .
 
ok ill give it a go ,think I prefer samsungs magician to intels tool box ,hard to think I used to run windows seven on 60gb ,oh well probably wont be long for the next step up 500gb /1tb .price permitting maybe them evos will become cheaper ,there is definitely a marked improvement over the intel .
 
60gb is a bit tight. I used to manage with an Intel 80gb, which was OK for a while.

My 840 250gb is more than enough for my current requirements, and I can't see the need for much more SSD capacity for quite a while. Windows 7 + apps + several full game installs is all I need. Backups, photos and other data are stored on mechanical drives.
