Write Speeds really slow on ssd's

Buchanan0204 · 21 Jul 2010 at 02:33

Hi everyone,

I bought myself two OCZ Vertex 2E's around 6 weeks ago and have them running in raid0 with a 128KB stripe on the standard raid controller built into my asus maximus formula mobo.

However, I have never really been convinced these are working just as quick as they should be, i've hardly noticed a difference from my old 74GB raptor.

I noticed browsing the forums other peoples write speeds on AS-SSD is a lot higher than mine. If anyone could take a look at my results and let me know what they think.

Cheers.

Test using ATTO.

Here's a "Shortstroked" version of 2 x Vertex 2E 64G. It improves the write speed.

It doesn't feel like it. Maybe it's just me, I dunno. Maybe i'm expecting too much or maybe it's the rest of my system letting it down.
