Coachsleep Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Setup: x3 CSSD-F60GBGT-BK in Raid 0 w/128k Stripe. AMD Raid Controller on Asus M4A89 Pro MB Updated: MB-BIOS updated to latest build SDD Firmware flashed to 1.3.2 (on all three drives) Windows 7 Patched + Drivers installed Windows 7 Optimized for SSD performance (via reputable locations and hours of reading) Testing Software HD Tune Pro 4.60 Results (see attacedment) It appears that my Read speeds are lacking. No matter what i do, i cannot get them to reach acceptable levels. I am no pro with SSD's yet, although i would imagine that with these three drives, i would recieve a read speed higher than 369.6 MB/s. I thought one drive alone would reach roughly 555 MB/s (according the advertisements/box). How can i go about troubleshooting what the root cause could be?

Wired Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Test with ATTO as that's what the rated max specs are from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coachsleep Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Test with ATTO as that's what the rated max specs are from. I've attached a screen shot from ATTO. If you would be so kind to review and advise i would be greatful. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Speeds are fine considering you are on RAID-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coachsleep Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 I wonder why it is that others who are running raid-0 with these drives are able to use HD Tune without complications; and show accurate results. How do i read those results correctly. Do i take the numbers on the left (128k) since that is my stripe size and consider that my speed. Or are these numbers on the left reflective of file-size?

Coachsleep Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 I flashed the drives to version 1.3.3 which just came out two days ago. Please see attachments for visual aid. The speeds did not change much. If you look at the Windows 7 Resource Monitor you can see im doing about 420mb write and 375 read. ATTO states im doing 1gig transfer. :confused: HD Tune states im running 345mb Max! :confused: I would have imagined that with a SSD my read speeds would be a straight horizontal line (more less) not so much a up/down graph.
