Newly installed Samsung in a no frills Alienware X51 R2.

Mine is an 840 and it double your speed?

Is it in a 6gb port?

Sorry guys, I should have offered a better explanation; Rapid was not activated. I wanted to get away from my tower and go to a smaller footprint system so I bought an Alienware X51 R2 and immediately replaced the 1Tb drive with the Samsung and ran a benchmark. I wanted to see how it compared to my previous system with a Crucial M500 960GB SSD. Here are the original Crucial scores:

Here is the Samsung in the X51 without Rapid:

And here is the Samsung with Rapid enabled:

Samsung Magician Score:

Ouch! That's a pretty brutal score with Rapid mode enabled! lol

Very nice.

Hi everyone , i decided to check out my SSD performance and got some conflicting info . On one screen it says i have damaged blocks (brand new SSD) and on the error check screen i have zero damaged blocks .

Any ideas

Thanks

Your first photo shows that 2 blocks were repaired. I would assume that since they were repaired they would not show up as bad blocks in later scans.
I would run the Manufacture diagnosis tools to insure your don't have a defective SSD

It looks like your running HD Tune, I have never run an error scan on any of my SSD's, The info tab and health tab are all the information I need!! If you start having an issue with a SSD it should show up in the Health tab. I don't really know as I have never had a SSD Fail YET "Knock on wood"
