For some reason, my Hard Drive performance dropped from 5.9 in Vista to 2.9! And I'm running RAID!
I wonder if it's because the Intel Matrix Storage Manager is not working properly. I tried to reinstall the Vista version, but it actually failed.

I have the same problem!

EDIT- What motherboard and HDD do you have?

Check my System Specs, I just updated them.

We have different motherboards but we both have Seagate drives, I wonder if Seagate's firmware has issues in Windows 7?

Re-run the the assessment. When I first checked my numbers, it was telling me I had a 1.6 for my HDD. I re-ran the test and it went up to 5.9.

I did, I ran it twice and it comes out the same.

Same for me.
Find my post under general discussion and post your specs.

Well, when I ran PCMark Vantage, I got a higher score than when I ran it with Vista on the same machine. So it must be a bug in the WEI.

Are you using the Intel chipset too? I have the ICH9R for my raid controller.

I have the ich9 as well and the seagate baracuta as well here are my scores..It must not mean much..
