Are My Writes Slow?

[idata]

In comparing my benchmarks with other I have seen on this forum, I find that my read speeds seem similar to others but my write speeds are lower. This has been the case since the first benchmark run, right after setting up the new PC, so I'm guessing it's nothing to do with TRIM. Win 7 64-bit and my driver is msahci.sys, no RAID. Any thoughts as to why the writes are slower than others have reported?

Thanks,

Sally

The 80GB SSD has slower Sequential Writes than a 160GB SSD, just keep that in mind when comparing benchmarks. Having said that, your Sequential Write speed is a bit low, should be 80+ MB/s. Try repeating the test and see what happens. Test results do vary, so let's wait for another test and post back what you get.

Your other Write speeds look alright, just a tad bit slower than what I get. I have both 80 and 160GB SSD's

Running again, my Sequential Write Speed has increased slightly - while some other speeds have fallen very slightly.

Maybe my SSD is still in training.

They are faster than mine and my system is fast. I have an AMD 965BE c2, 8 gigs ddr3 ram, MSI 790FX-GD 70 mb with the Intel X25M G2 80gig running my OS -Win7 Pro 64. Your scores are slightly faster. May I suggest that you compare your scores to your old hd and ask is it faster? Wink! What are your computer parts? The scores are very dependant on type of mb, processor etc.

Well, your Sequential Wtite speed still looks lower than what I get for my 80GB SSD:
