Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 12, 2010 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 12, 2010 What did you set the Raid size to? And what did you set the allocation to when you formatted the drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattspalace Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Those results don't look good at all.. Not for four drives; the single drive results are all over the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL-Paso Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 Yes im returning them. The thing is, they are on the market but you cant find any info on there website. So a firmware will not most likely come with in the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL-Paso Posted February 13, 2010 Author Share Posted February 13, 2010 I had noting to do so i was thinkin.. What is the speed with Raid 0 with 3 X R60 Here you can see http://www.jamfm.se/5.PNG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL-Paso Posted February 14, 2010 Author Share Posted February 14, 2010 If anyone else have the R60 or R120 Pleas post ATTO Bench, to see if they also are like flying around on speed. Also Ram Dude, Can you tell me way they look like this!!! system is brand new and i have high experience for over 20 years of hardware. Im new to SSD but the intel X25-M G2 I have do not fly all over the (have a stable speed). Also how can it be that Corsair have them out on the market, but there is 0 info abate them on you're website!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hcforde Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 I picked up one of these yesterday. Now I am worried. These numbers are erratic and I need this to be able to play HD video. I did notice that the drive was pre-formatted with NTSF,(I checked using the usb port) but there is so little info about these. The 120GB has an Indilinx controller. I thought these would also but I am now guessing it is a jmicron. If it is, I think this will cause a lot of returns because of the other controllers out there and the Sandforce controller comming on board. I am about to do some benches myself. I hope I have better benches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL-Paso Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 ok sounds good. Post them asap :) I hope you have beter luck then me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hcforde Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 For the sake of clarity in benchmarking. I think you should not benchmark the drive you use as a boot drive. I did get pretty consistant increases until it topped out at about 240. Once it reached 200 @32kb it never went below it. Average write was at about 100MB/s while average read was about 235MB/s. As you can see this is on a 32bit quad core machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 16, 2010 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 16, 2010 I would suggest setting the Raid to 128K cluster and the when you do the QUICK Format select 32k Allocation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EL-Paso Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 I would suggest setting the Raid to 128K cluster and the when you do the QUICK Format select 32k Allocation. That was my setup... One fanny thing was that i got trim to work in raid 0 with my R60 with the latest intel chip driver!!! Did not know it was working in raid 0. I have not dig down, if i find more info i let you know. (Did not work with the OCZ ssd i have) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted February 18, 2010 Corsair Employee Share Posted February 18, 2010 The latest Driver for the Intel storage driver is rumored to work with Windows 7 Trim. But I have not seen anything official yet from Intel. And before you post here it is; I have not talked to them or looked on their site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Death Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Hello, i bought the R60 as well, and i'm wondering about the burst rate i always get with HD Tune. I think it should be more than 100mb/s :confused:. (my hard drive's burst rate is above 200). Can somebody test it with hd tune and post the result here please? I'm using the R60 as the os drive (xp pro 32), but i testet it under vista as non-sys-drive and the result was the same. http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/5268/r60.jpghttp://img8.imageshack.us/img8/3038/attou.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbobb Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hi El-Paso and all, I posted some benchmark results/information on R60 over at http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=85297 also I posted a youtube link at and that guy James got some excellant read/write results. I followed RAM GUY recommendations and I still get inconsistent results, these drives are brand new. I am wondering if there is a firmware update. I have 10 days left from the company i got them from before i can get a refund for them, i really like Corsair products and I dont want to return them but if i cant get consistent results then i have no chioce. If u look at the video you can see that James got amazing results compared to the R60. I also follow all his steps on the youtube link and still no joy. Attached is my latest results, I am waiting on RAM Guy to give me some more advice or if anyone else can help much appriciated. cheers J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanSolo71 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 With the new Intel RST drivers it appears I have TRIM support, even when in RAID mode, currently running R60 boot, 2x500 RAID 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted March 3, 2010 Corsair Employee Share Posted March 3, 2010 What do you have the Raid cluster size to and what did you set the format allocation to and did you only select Quick format? And are you using the latest drivers for the Controller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanSolo71 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Raid Cluster 128k, formate allocation was default, and yes quick format, i also did a reinstall to this drive. When I run the command fsutil behavior query DisableDeleteNotify it does equal 0, which to my knowledge means TRIM is running. Yes I am using latest drivers RST 9.5.7.1002 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
