ssd poor write performance write

[s innes]

ok this is my first foray in to the ssd drive
i have bought the Corsair Force Series 3 240GB
here are the test results

this drive is running on a sata2 connection
mobo is Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 with q6600 at stock speed
the drive is running under raid and not ACHI Mode
as there is also a raid 0 set up on the same controller

so what i am looking for is suggestions on how to increase the write speed

aye it would appear both test prog's are not workning as they should
i downloaded and ran crystal disk mark and got results closer to what i would expect on a sata2 connection
