@ Wishmaster:
I'll check the firmware of the disks, and I will check the drivers on my MB tonight.
Thnx!

@ WHS:
How do you do a proper alignment? It's a Raid on my MB, no controller. Most recent BIOS. As you can read, I'm gonna check my drivers and firmware on the ssd's.
Thnx and Grtz!
Sorry if this has been covered, but I'm getting up to speed slowly on the SSD drives.
Can someone tell me the clear difference between the M series and the E series (regular vs. Extreme)
Obviously, there's a big price difference. For what?
The Extreme edition uses SLC (single level cells), while the Mainstream series uses the cheaper MLC (multi level cells). The SLC's are more expensive, but are faster and technically should be more reliable.
This wikipedia page covers the difference between the two types

I have the M series Intel drive myself and have no complaints or concerns with it.
At last a proper benchmark result of my 2 OCZ 30gb disks in Raid-0. Found out I had the proper firmware already on the disks, 1.5, updated my mobo drivers and found out the benchmark was set on 64 kb. 1 mb were the best results.
How do you all think of these results?
This looks pretty good although I have seen 2 SSDs in Raid0 up to 400MB/sec. Yours is 250 which compares to around 200 for a single SSD. But it does not matter either way. What's important is the access time. Given the capacity of those disks, you will not be moving tons of data around anyway. The rest is academic.
