AS SSD is a great free tool designed just for benching Solid State Drives. It performs an array of sequential read and write tests, as well as random read and write tests with sequential access times over a portion of the drive. AS SSD includes a sub suite of benchmarks with various file pattern algorithms but this is difficult in trying to judge accurate performance figures.
AS SSD only works with incompressible data which highlights the strengths of this particular drive, with an excellent overall score of 760. In RAID 0, this score increases to 1413 which is a noticeable 86% increase.
Above, some comparison results from other leading drives available on the market today.
Id be happy if I could afford one of these, never mind two. nice performance. im off to cry in a corner.
Work well in RAID 0, but £800 was more than my last system cost. still we can dream, right?
These are amazing SSD drives provided by intel.
Check it out on amazon!

You missed a huge performance gain by not installing an intel rst version.
rapid storage technology gives a boost to the low/mid size file transfer rates which really makes a windows based operating system fly.
always only use the rst version from the boards download page along w/ being on the latest bios.
one little glitch to know about; most times write back cache is disabled by default.
open rst/click volume icon/toggle write back cache on/off/on.
re-run the atto bench and look for the big performance gain.
