AHCI : Enable in Windows 7 / Vista

Hello Dave, thanks!



Some do have issues with drivers, still.

Is there any performance gain by enabling AHCI ?

Yes, search Google for benchmarks!

Just enabled it but my WEI score dropped from 5.9 to 1.0

Don't worry about the WEI score. You can try running it again if you want, but it really doesn't make any difference.

Is this how you re-ran the assessment?

Maybe you should have a look at the tutorial at the link below on how to optimize Windows 7 to see if it speeds you up; there's a lot of good info in there.

Thanks but I'll stay with IDE. :) AHCI caused performance issues with my HDD.

OK mate, thanks for the update.
