Intel SSD 330. Windows 7 freezes frequently after fresh installation

[idata]

I had purchased intel SSD 330 120 Gb.

At first I installed in my desktop (AMD Board), a lot of time the SSD fail to be detected with SMART error.

After that I had it installed in my notebook. It worked, but frequently the windows freezes, I have to reboot, and it's ok. After that the problems comes again and I have to reboot again.

I had the SSD removed, then installed to another desktop (intel), the same problem comes up. I had to reboot to resolve the freezes. I could not get into the Internet when the windows freezes.

THis is very frustrating, I could not get tow work with three different machine. I have another SSD (OCZ),which work with my desktop and notebook.

Can anybody assist me on this.

I had done fresh installations on all three machine.

Can I proceed with RMA?

Thanks.

FYI... I just reinstalled Windows 7 from scratch due to an unrelated problem, and no freezing issues anymore even with DIPM on. So seems to be an issue with migrating an existing system to Intel SSD. I guess it makes sense to do a clean install when migrating to SSD.

Had the same problem, tried all of the tips listed here, and even called Intel support, Which was a complete waist of time. I was first told that it was a memory issue, with windows 7, i.e. I was running out of memory, when I stated the fact that there is 12GB in the system and asked if they has looked at the details I has sent (the performance monitor showing the disk queue maxed out) CPU 9% memory 6 GB free details.... I did not get a response...

However I found a fix for the problem, I replaced the drive with a OCZ Agility 4 256GB and have not seen any hang / pause at all!

+1 more. Last Intel SSD I am buying. It will go right back to Newegg and be reviewed with a simple review warning others that these are DOA and unstable. Clearly this is a product that should be recalled or never have made it to market. Intel can answer me on Newegg where the general public can read my review and Intel's response, or lack thereof. I won't waste anymore time. GJ Intel, you went from being awesome to being Turdburglars over one bad product. I simply won't trust more Intel SSD's no matter what happens. It changes that fast. Thanks for wasting my time. I'd be willing to bet Intel knows these should not have made it to market. There is no excuse for DOA from the likes of Intel. None.

One more unhappy costumer, I have intel ssd 330 120gb on fresh installed win 7 64-bit and my lenovo laptop g780g freezes randomly.

I tried:

- Install latest IRST and disable DIMP with manual and auto regfix iastor ->freezing

- unnistal IRST, ms drivers works with no freezing but there shows up random blue screen 0x000000004f error

- Install IRST again, uninstall lenovo power managment, regfix again, power plan option for hard disk set to never but still freezing

-in bios setting is on AHCI

For all that test time Intel ssd toolbox shows that DIMP is optimized, I don't know how is that posibble if in registry is everything to disabled (set to 0)

I am desperate help me...I wanted to return disk to my local store but they say it has been past 8 days from purchase and return/replacement for another product is not possible. And if I take disk at warranty they probably wouldn't find any problems because it's the driver issue...Is there still something else that I could try?

Problems here too. Lenovo H430 desktop, 240GB Intel 330 SSD. Frequent freezing in Chrome that last for 30+ seconds. One time it froze for minutes and finally I pulled the plug.

I've updated the chipset drivers to the latest, got the lastest RST driver from Intel's website. Even tried disabling LPM and DIPM per the registry tweaks. Still got a freezeup a few minutes ago.

Not real happy with Intel right now.
