Thats with write-cache buffering off, nothing else done to it. Transfer speeds are pretty good, but I think it does very well in the file benchmark.

Not a bad $80 storage drive

Hell, I use my 500gb Black's for benching. No $$$ yet for ssd's.... too many parts that are more important...

Thanks for posting the results! Very helpful

when i'm benching ..i usually get 10-30 bsods or videocard freezes..

reboot with ssd is so much faster....windows load time is in about 12 seconds compared to hdd which is about 30seconds for vraptors...

access time of ssd is many much faster...

I have about 7 36Gb raptors, one for each platform. With XP 32bit bench OS, from power on to windows takes about 10 seconds.

With my daily Vlited Win7 64bit on my SSD, its about 22 seconds from power button to on.

never had corruption on my ssds...

Not having corruption means you aren't pushing hard enough.

It's easy to say ssd's are better benchers when you do not push them... the proof is in the pudding. Hard disks corrupt less at higher clocks... Period. It has a lot to do with the way and rate the drives write.

LOL @ Punx's drunken schoolings. Btw this is not a FS thread. It is a hdd info thread. Still does not need pooping on.

SSD's corrupt very easy if not very stable.... try overclocking higher than than a dummy OC with one. (have a backup image ready btw )

and im not trying to be a dick honda, but what you did would be like me posting pics and timeslips of my blown stroker motored car, and you jumping in and saying yeah thats nice but a $1.2M Bugatti can go way faster. Yes it can but mine is still thje more practical/affordable/stable solution by far.
