Oh well.  Can't help those kind too much.  Common, I can almost guarantee that if any suggestions are given, my System Specs wouldn't be required. Why is everyone hung up on System Spec, most of the users on this board offer, so I'm one of the few that don't, why get yourself all tied in a knot or not help over that, it really doesn't make sense, even if you think it does. Offer a suggestion to help with a problem, and see where it leads. It sound like a car having a flat and you need the name of the tires to suggest a solution, does that make sense ? You know, it would help if we knew what size tire you needed to replace it, and what style tires you had so the replacement would match the others. | My System Specs |

Believe it or not, it does help with many issues, even if it doesn't make sense to you. A certain graphics card, motherboard or OEM may have a known issue that someone knows about and could fix easily.
But the choice is yours, as it is ours to help or not.
For those that don't want to cooperate, I'll find someone else that will, better use of my time. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number 76~2.0 OS Windows 7 Ult x64 - SP1/ Windows 8 Pro x64 CPU Intel Core i5-3570K 4.6GHz Motherboard Gigabyte GA-Z77X UD3H, f18 Memory 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3 1600 Corsair Vengeance CL8 1.5v Graphics Card Sapphire HD 7770 Vapor-X OC 1GB DDR5 Sound Card Onboard VIA VT2021 Monitor(s) Displays 22" LCD Dell Screen Resolution 1680x1050 Keyboard Logitech Wave Mouse CM Sentinel PSU Corsair HX650W Case Cooler Master Storm Scout Cooling Corsair H80 2x12cm Noctua NF P12 , 2x14cm case fans Hard Drives Samsung 840Pro 128GB SSD,

Windows 8 WEI rating system goes to 9.9.
Where as Windows 7 goes to 7.9 WEI.
So your scores look normal as best as I can tell.

Some SSDs need to be taken care of in different ways, depending on the controller and nand used.
If we knew the brand, we can find the controller type, we could possible help speed it up a bit.
SandForce controllers are different than Intel or JMicron, there are different things that can be done.
Also the age of the SSD, at a certain age, actually number of writes, it might need to be secure erased to re-gain performance.
Another is firmware update, depending on the SSD brand and model.

Also recent Intel SSDs have Sandforce, then Samsung makes their own and Crucial runs with Marvell. | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Home Built Desktop By DataTech OS Windows 7 Ultimate X64 SP1 CPU Intel i5-2550K, Differing ~4.4-4.8GHz No built in GPU Motherboard ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 Memory 16GB G.Skill Sniper 2133MHz 4x4GB Graphics Card ASUS ENGTX460 DirectCU/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 460 Sound Card Onboard Realtek 5-1 Monitor(s) Displays Samsung P2570HD Screen Resolution 1920x1080 Keyboard Old, beat-up Dell USB From 10 yrs Ago Mouse Gigabyte m6900 wired PSU Corsair HX650W Case Inwin Dragon Rider Cooling Hyper 212 EVO w/two Noctua fans, push-pull, @1300 RPM Hard Drives Crucial M4 128GB for OS, 750GB Seagate MomentusXT for data, 500GB Seagate Constellation for storage Internet Speed 8-19 Mbs down, 3-4 Mbs up Comcast Cable Antivirus Norton Internet Security Browser IE 9, Opera when needed Other Info 4 case fans, LG BluRay-RE, ASUS DVD-RW, Mr. Fusion power generator with flux capacitor, 1.21 gigawatts. |

Just tested the ASRock XfastRAM RAM disk for fun:
BTW, when using a SSD, it's highly recommend to map windows "temp" and "tmp" environment variable to a RAM disk. Same for Internet Explorer, Firefox or Google Chrome temp folder. Make the system goes faster AND prevent degradation by avoiding multiple small writes to the SSD. Contrary to other RAM disk software I have tested, XfastRAM RAM disk configuration interface can do all this automatically! | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Ramon special edition OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 CPU Intel i5-2500K @ 4.8Ghz 1.4V (Prime Stable 24H, 78C max) Motherboard ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 Memory G.Skill Ripjaws 2 X 4GB 1600 @ 1866 9-9-9-28 1T 1.53V Graphics Card Intel HD3000 @ 1.5Ghz (GTX 680 soon) Sound Card Realtek ALC892 Monitor(s) Displays 2 X LG L226WTQ 22in Screen Resolution 1680 X 1050 Keyboard Ducky Shine DK9008S White LED Cherry Brown Swich Mouse Microsoft Intellimouse Optical USB PSU Seasonic X-560 Gold Case Corsair Carbide 500R Cooling Cooler Master Hyper 612 PWM Hard Drives Crucial M4 128,
