    Definately good. AHCI, good alignment, fast threaded reads. Nothing wrong there! Hows it /feel/ :)

    Feels very lightweight It opens everything in instant. I wonder if I could do Raid 0 with 40GB and 80GB Intel G2 SSD disks? Different size and different speed will be an issue?!

    I personally would not Raid it. For the little gain you buy additional complexity.

    Hello Zenith2009, welcome to Seven Forums!

    The drives have to be an exact match for a RAID array.

    Thanx to all.
    I have learned the hard way and this is the result:

    The AHCI part I figured out from Zenith2009's screenshot. Mine says iaStor in the same place, referring to the Intel Storage Driver. Is that OK?

    As for the good alignment part, how is that determined? :)

    If you made a new windows7 install, the installer takes care of it. If you e.g. restore an image, you have to do it yourself. E.G like this in cmd:

    1 once the elevated cmd window is open type diskpart
    2 list disk
    3 select disk X with X being the number given for your ssd
    4 clean - this destroys all partition/volume data on the disk.
    5 create partition primary align 64
    6 active
    7 exit

    Hello whs, wouldn't "clean all" be better as that over-writes all the data, isn't "clean" just like a regular format and we all know that a format does not actually remove old data?

    Hello whs, wouldnI guess you got a point't "clean all" be better as that over-writes all the data, isn't "clean" just like a regular format and we all know that a format does not actually remove old data?
    I guess you got a point. The only problem I have is that clean all zeros all the sectors. And that is not so swift if the SSD is brand new (because of Trim).

    I totally agree with you about a "new" SSD, but that's not what we're referring to here.
