Have I Been Had? Corsair disk failed at five months. RMA'd and they returned a reconditioned disk. When I look at it with AS SSD it shows some bad memory. Post attached the bench mark down't mean much it was in an external doc running from USB. But I am wondering if I should be satisfied or not. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Brand X OS win 7 X64 Ultimate SP1 CPU I7950 Motherboard Asus P6X58D Premium Memory Corsair Dominator (6X2) CMD12GX3M6A1600C8 Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX460 Sound Card Realtek HD 5.1 (MOB) Monitor(s) Displays Asus VW224T (1) Screen Resolution 1680x1050 Keyboard MS Wireless 3000 V2 Mouse MS Wireless 3000 V2 PSU CoolerMaster 1000 Watt Case CoolerMaster HAF X Cooling CPU -- CoolerMaster 520N Hard Drives SATA

Have you tried making sure the drive is aligned? It looks like that number is saying the drive isn't aligned - Alex Intelligent Software - Downloads

No, your alignment is off. There are only 2 ways I know of to fix it. A clean install and alignment withe diskpart or the windows installer, or Paragon alignment tool ($29.95). I use diskpart and align it myself. You can use this tutorial by BFK, to use diskpart, except I would not use the 'clean all' command, use the 'clean' command. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home Brew - Always under construction OS Windows 7 X64 Professional/Windows 8 CPU intel i7-2600K Motherboard Asus P8Z68 V-Pro/GEN 3 Memory 8GB G.Skill Sniper DDR3-2133 (2X4GB) Graphics Card EVGA 670 2GB Sound Card Asus Xonar Monitor(s) Displays Asus 24" LCD VW246H Screen Resolution 1920X1080 Keyboard Logitech G510 Mouse Logitech G500/Logitech Wireless PSU CORSAIR HX850W Case Cooler Master HAF X Cooling Corsair H100 w/ 4 noctua fans in push/pull.

Whoopsie! You are right it was out of alignment. I cured that with disk part. It also showed two volumes. I cleaned it off and repartitioned It shows up correctly now.
With out writing an essay I'll try to explain. I used diskpart and made a partition the first time and fromatted Ntfs. The disk showed up in my disk manager in win but when I rebooted it disappeared. So I booted into Mini Part and redid the disk. That is where i discovered the offset. After your replys I attempted DiskPart again. I think maybe I fat fingered it some where. It seems ok now. Thanks people for the quick reply. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Brand X OS win 7 X64 Ultimate SP1 CPU I7950 Motherboard Asus P6X58D Premium Memory Corsair Dominator (6X2) CMD12GX3M6A1600C8 Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX460 Sound Card Realtek HD 5.1 (MOB) Monitor(s) Displays Asus VW224T (1) Screen Resolution 1680x1050 Keyboard MS Wireless 3000 V2 Mouse MS Wireless 3000 V2 PSU CoolerMaster 1000 Watt Case CoolerMaster HAF X Cooling CPU -- CoolerMaster 520N Hard Drives SATA

I'm sure none of us has ever fat fingered anything.
