I need to reflash my both Intel X25-M with the latest firmware but tool doesn't let me cause it's already running latest version. Reason why is that under Windows 7 Raid 0 of these two scores only 5.9. I thought that SATA controller on my x58 motherboard went bad, so i got a new motherboard and same thing! I think something wrong is going with drives and they probably need to be reflashed, that might fix a problem. Just to say that Windows 7 always scored 7.9 before.

Well, TRIM does not work for G1 drives and most likely never will. Still, the drive is not garbage, just you buying the first phase of new technology.
You should have stated it was a G1 SSD in your first post. Many people were trying to help you and you didn't know G1 drives are not supported by TRIM?

Why are you talking about TRIM when you said it is not a G2 SSD? Are you just here to play games?

relax ppl. he might not have understanding of the g1 and trim...
i think he is one who's confused the most about g1 and trim support.
g1 shows better sustainability for in long term use compared to g2 without trim.
the g1 is designed to work better than any other ssds available when it was released for sale without trim.
g1 is still well performing ssd without trim support and u can securely erase the ssd to initialize.
