hoserama Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I have recently built a new system consisting of an Intel i5 2500k cpu, Asrock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 motherboard, and a Corsair Force GT 180gb for a boot drive. It is without a doubt faster than the previous WD Raptor i was using but after checking the drive speed i see the read rate according to HDTune has a max of 285.9 MB/s speed. I have enabled ACHI in the bios prior to installing Win 7 64bit, verified trim is enabled, and also that it is indeed plugged into SATA port 0 which is one of the SATA III ports on the motherboard. Any ideas on what else I can do to get speeds up to what they should? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoserama Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 I was reading some other threads and saw ATTO mentioned. I downloaded, installed, and the transfer speeds appear to be alright. If someone can please look at the attachment though, as i am certainly not the expert here. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbonerfs101e Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Hi Hoserama with your Z68 chipset, SSD speed is very good In fact, with a motherboard controller. You could get the maximum performance from sata3 SSD only with intel Z68 and X79 chipset. Or with a pcie 8X or 16X controller. Hope this help Sincerly yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
