LuminaL Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hi i´v just installed a Force F60 SSD and updated my Windows XP to Windows 7. The test score from ATTO looks much lower then the results i see here from others. The computer acts,responds and boots alot faster than before so i am happy with it. Just wanted to see if ther is more performance to get out of it. I think TRIM and NCQ is activated if im interpreting Crystal disk info correctly. :biggrin: I have the Boot fail problem ( Disk disappears from BIOS ) others have reported here on this drive. i cant find any more up to date BIOS to this computer so i guess im stuck with that. Just have to cold boot the computer every time :sigh!: http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/3476/f60attoscore.jpghttp://img576.imageshack.us/img576/5247/f60crystaldiskinfo.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synbios Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 CrystalDisk will only tell you if TRIM is supported by the hard drive, it doesn't mean that it's enabled or not. You have to check the Win7 command line as the guide here in the forums explains. What are you using for a South Bridge? Your speeds look like SATA I.

Yellowbeard Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 The drive controller on your motherboard only supports SATA 150. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&docname=c00714578 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuminaL Posted October 26, 2010 Author Share Posted October 26, 2010 Finaly found the correct motherboard on the HP site. Not the best site to look around in. My motherboard has an "extender" at the bottom with another 2 pci slots like this card. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00714567&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3203485&lang=en#N24 In the specifications table it is listed with 4 serial ATA-150 connectors. So i guess the speed of my drive is as good as it gets. The south bridge is Nforce 430 (MCP51) and ther is an onboard GeForce 6150LE. Nvidias site gives this setup 3 Gb/s SATA speed. ( SATA2? ) So the HP OEM board must have goten nerfed some where along the way. Or could that be done by the BIOS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synbios Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Yeah it got "nerfed" because of whatever SATA controller is connected to that South Bridge. Your South Bridge as well as the controller needs to support SATA II. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
