Show us your SSD performance

Boy, I was really worried that I gave you the wrong advice. I was really worried. But, at least you have it where it needs to be. I do not believe that the IRST drivers will work on a Marvell port. But, if your Intel ports are in ahci mode, I would install it for them. IRST is Intel's raid driver but it also contains the Intel ahci driver, iaStor. I don't use raid, but have it installed on my computer. With the Marvell ports you have on your board, I think you have the best driver you can use.

EDIT: sorry I didn't tell you the easy way first.

I´m sorry i couldnt get back sooner but i had to eat first so no worries, it worked and i believe i can feel Windows responding better :)
Then i will stay on this drive for my SSD.
I cant thank you enought for all your help!!!
As i have a SATA2 HDD installed perhaps i will install IRST to help it along abit, if it helps.
My 4kb read really jumped up and i guess it´s that one i feel in Windows. It jumped up from ~19 to 30+

Also, with SSDs you should not run a lot of benchmark tests. It will slow them down.

Ok, then its good that i make screendumps and save them
But i think i will in a while eraze my SSD using HDDErase that i´ve read about beeing good for getting a SSD to it´s original speed again, as i have benched a few times already.

I don't think that is necessary. You have a new drive and trim will take care of it. So a secure erase isn't necessary really.

EDIT: when I said slow it down, I meant temporarially. Trim will fix that. That is why you switched drivers.

Aaaaahhhhh........ one other thing i´ve been thinking about is that i read somewhere about Superfetch and i looked in my services and its not Enabled. Should i enable it and does it do anything?

It should be enabled. RAM is MUCH faster than the fastest SSD. And don't worry about write degradation. Your SSD will last for 10 years.

Now you show up. Great timing!

Many thanks..... now i shell watch some tv and then tomorrow i will play some games, perhaps Crysis 2

Be well all you guys that have helped me out and take good care.

I know now where to turn for some expert help if i should need it, as i´m sure i will again some day
