Cons: Had to go into my BIOS and set HD mode to IDE. In AHCI mode firmware upgrade software doesnt detect drive...
Pros: My laptop boots in 30 seconds! Really snappy! |
Put this SSD in my Gateway P-7803h as the primary drive. I also upgraded to a C2D P8700(2.53ghz). System boot time is actually faster than my i7 920 w/X-25M 80gb, altho my desktop does have alot more apps running in the background. Benchmarking with ATTO, it gets 240MBs read, 150MBs write. With HDTACH, average read 185MBs, burst speed 177MBs, the reads are all over the place too, somethings hoochie.... I have the latest firmware that supports TRIM, but unlike my X-25M, defrag isnt automatically disabled, and I cant seem to figure out how to disable it... Maybe a windows update will address this...? Overall this thing smokes, easily one of the fastest mainstream SSDs around!
