That is a big difference. How often have you run it? If you did just one run and got a score of 441 that might have just been a "lucky" run.

Very interesting, and that certainly shows the msahci driver giving better scores than the new Intel driver. inflatablemouse seems to suggest better scores with the new Intel driver. Perhaps it all depends on your motherboard?

I've run AS SSD lots of times and never got a score as low as yours. I usually get 424.
