Here are the numbers for my new Samsung 128Gb 840 Pro as promised.

Very good SSD Barry, I bet the rig flies.

Thanks Gary! Yeah, I am loving the performance.

I would say, if it ain't broke, don't mess with it.

I was thinking the same myself.

Thanks Bill, paulpicks and Dave! It is nice to know that my new SSD performs well.

Hi LittleJay

Did you do either of the Samsung firmware updates, v1.1 or v1.2? Support - Solid State Drives MZ-7PD128 | Samsung Memory & Storage

No I didn't.

May I ask, why not?

Agree, haven't found anything suggesting the new firmware is mandatory or fixes a serious problem.

I did update mine before installing the OS.
The Magician software is suppose to leave your data intact, if you do decide to do it always make a disk image first.

No I didn't.

To tell the truth I didn't even think about it. I had my PC torn apart installing a new CPU cooler, so I installed the SSD at the same time and it never even crossed my mind. So now that I have Windows 7 installed on it and the SDD is performing well, I'll leave it as is.

It makes sense.

Like whs said: "I would say, if it ain't broke, don't mess with it."

Here's how SSD Life works for me.

Do you see dead people? Very odd Gary.

Only a couple.
I uninstalled it, ran CCleaner reg cleaner and temp cleaner, rebooted reinstalled and still a blank window.
Also checked Windows Update for maybe a .NET update but nada.

The Pro Trial works except for throughput info.

I can't see any data from this attachment. It shows only a "clean slate."

Your Crucial attachment is fine.

That's the problem mate. They are both SSD Life, one free, the other a Pro Trial. I know one is blank.

some fantastic speed, it's this silly software not cooperating.

 

[A Guy]

Try running it in safe mode? See if it displays correctly. You ran as admin? (although I don't have to) A Guy

Yeah, tried that. It may be a Crucial glitch, some on their forum report the same thing.

 

[Brink]

Benchmark on OCZ Vector 256GB.

 

[Parman]

Nice speed brink.

 

[LittleJay]

Good looking numbers Brink!
