I was expecting 5 to 10 times better performance. Current performance is not any better than on my Centrino dual core laptop with a 5.400 RPM disk drive.</P><P></P><P>Also, after installing the Intel SSD Toolbox, whenever I run it, it won't let me do anything. It correctly identifies the installed drive , but when I click on the drive, it performs a refresh and won't let me select any of the buttons, such as "View drive information", "Check SMART Attributes", etc.</P><P></P><P>Thanks in advance for any advice.</P> Wed, 16 Mar 2011 01:59:35 GMT https://community.solidigm.com/t5/archive/ssd-510-runs-slow/m-p/8438#M7488 idata 2011-03-16T01:59:35Z https://community.solidigm.com/t5/archive/ssd-510-runs-slow/m-p/8439#M7489 <P>Unfortunately, NVIDIA chipsets sometimes have issues with SSDs.</P><P></P><P>Would it be possible for you to drop the SSD into your laptop just to run benchmarks?
