X25-M 80GB low 4k read

[idata]

Hi all,

I've been testing my new system that has an Intel X25-M 80 gb and I seem to be getting a lower 4k read value than most benchmarks I see, usally around 19/20 MB/s while mine is 14MB/s.

This is on a fresh windows 7 x64 instalation, asus p7p55d motherboard and a I5-750 cpu. Sata option in BIOS with AHCI when installing windows.

- system restore off

- index off

- hibernation off

I've read all the related threads here and more and still no solution.. any ideas?

thanks in advance

yes, did that. but I still dont know which drivers are you really using, with the screenshot of the device manager is better so I can check that

In device manager double click on AHCI controller- driver-update driver-browse my computer-let me pick.... did you see same as my above?

So how come you posted an AS SSD result showing the msahci driver?

[idata]

You better watch this guy. He posted the picture below saying he reached good speed--msahci is the driver shown in the test and now shows you an Intel driver in Device Manager.

When I move cursor to msahci word inside AS SSD the popup brings that it is Intel AHCI driver.
