Aiosforos Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 hello guys! Im new here, ive made a new pc 3 days ago with the specs that are in my profile, and after i set it up, i loaded bios on motherboard, i set AHCI for sata devices, and after i installed windows 7 x64 bit ultimate edition.... after that i installed drivers for motherboard and nothing else. i searched the internet and found this screenshot of a force 3 120gb ssd like mine: http://media1.servethehome.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Corsair-Force-3-120GB-ATTO.png as you see the speeds of read/write are like the manufacturer says, around 550mb/s read and 510mb/s write. so i downloaded ATTO Benchmark and shoot it on my pc, and the result is this: http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x443/Aiosforos91/77729c1f.png read speed is fine, but write speed slows down and i dont know why, thats why im posting you here for help! WHAT is causing it to slow down and how can i fix it to work properly? EDIT: PS: i forgot to write that ssd had 1.3.2v firmware and i updated it with 1.3.3, the correct one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowbeard Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Gigabyte has some BIOS oddities that cause SATA slowdowns. I "think" it is the sleep states C3 and C6. If they are currentlly enabled, disable them. If they are currently disabled, enable them. Do some searching here with other Gigabyte users.
