Show us your SSD performance

Total confusion reigns - LOL

Divide 100 billion (100GB in decimal) three times by 1024 and see what you get.

The first one to figure it out wins the Speedy Gonzales prize.

93.13225746154785...maybe

It confirms the 7% number for OP that was mentioned, and people were questioning if that was binary to decimal ad nauseum

I don't think so. These 7% are purely coincidental. The 7% we were discussing (for the GB range) are a purely mathimatical phenomenon. If it were in the MB range, we would be seeing appr. 5% and in the TB range appr. 10%. But I think we have discusses that to death. So no point to start all over again.

Here is some SSD wisdom from Ed Bott who is one of the industrie#s Gurus: Windows 7 and SSDs: Setup secrets and tune-up tweaks | ZDNet

Get out the Amex Black and or Master the possibilities or do like I'll do and drool and wait for them to fall with time !

Frankly... that's more resonable than the 48k Apple ][ expansion that cost $2250 when it came out

First day with my new M4. Nums look a bit strange but what really counts are the 4K nums. The thing is lightning fast with a 7.8 WEI.

A Guy

WHS, those numbers look prety good. Crucials have lower write speeds. Are you in AHCI mode?

Yes, AHCI and it is on a Sata3 port.. What is interesting is that the nums and the performance experience do not always match. I have one OCZ Vertex 2 in a laptop which has a WEI of 6.9 (don't ask me why), but this is my fastest system.

well, I think that says an awful lot about the WEI system, don't you?
