Windows 8 SSD caching performance?

Anyone here using an SSD has a caching drive? Since installing win8 my SSD is not performing like it used to on win7. see image almost 500mb/s but on win8 am not even getting 200mb/s

I have tried disabling the drive and re-enabling it witch has done nothing. Am wondering if its because the intel smart response software is for win7 has Arock dont have any drivers on there site yet for win8?

I'm using the latest Intel RST drivers from their site they are both Win7 and Win8 compatible 11.6.0.1030,I had them already installed on 7 and upgraded fine to 8 with them installed.
