Don't know OCIR am no expert but how about downloading the software again?

[OCIR]

I did 3 times

OO not good eh? Sorry OCIR thats me out of ideas

I have just downloaded and install the software with no trouble so perhaps we can compare. First off exactly which model Intel SSD do you have? The detail should look something like this "180GB INTEL® 330 SERIES SSD, SATA 6 Gb/s"

 

[OCIR]

intell 520 240gig

 

[mitchell65]

So I think the full description would be "Intel® SSD 520 Series (240GB, 2.5in SATA 6Gb/s, 25nm, MLC)". All the indications are that the Toolkit should work perfectly with this SSD. Did you buy it new?

 

[OCIR]

yes it is new and has a build date of 1/20/2013

 

[mitchell65]

then I too am lost. perhaps it would be best for you to approach Intel support via this link:
Intel® Customer Support

Please report back here if you get this resolved and sorry I can't be of more assistance. I too am new to SSd's!

i am set to 0

 

[mitchell65]

Have to say that I had to Google "marvill controler" to find out what it was so am a bit lost here. There does seem to b an lot of info on the net regarding this controller, perhaps if no one more learned than me reads this thread in the next 24 hours it might be as well to go to Intell as i suggested earlier. Obviously they would need to have your mobo details.

Well if it is of any help to you blokes the Marvell controllers are regarded as better than the Sandforce ones at least and this is some info for you on them.

Just a thought but maybe OCIR you might just have a dodgy drive mate.

I don't have a Marvell controller so I don't "need" a tool box for my SSD.

Do you have your tool box program installed on another drive. The only time your
problem has happened to me is when I installed the wrong tool box or I was using Marvell
SATA III. I use Intel SATA II.

 

[OCIR]

the marvill is the sata III port my intells are sataII ports so i hooked up the ssd to the marvill sata III port to get the sataIII 6gb's speed was I wrong in doing this?

 

[Layback Bear]

That is exactly the same problem I had. Install your SSD in the SATA II and
give that a try. It seems like Marvell, Asus and Intel SSD don't get along.

 

[OCIR]

SATA II ICH10R vs. SATA III Marvel 9128 Controllers - Windows Enterprise Desktop this looks like the prob i have
So I can just log off and move the ssd plug from a sataIII port to a sata II port?
And l can juse leave the storage hdd on the sata III port
