Hey, g.skill.
I recently purchased a 120GB SSD from you for my new work build. Everything seemed fine and it worked well. I installed Windows 7 on it and it was fast and worked very well, however, a few things have me worried.
1. After installing Win. 7 and a couple programs, a test in HD Tune Pro revealed averages of 199 MB/s, with a maximum of 212 MB/s, and a minimum of 60 MB/s. I feel that it should not be spiking that much no matter what is on it. And I also feel that 199 MB/s is really slow compared to the claim of 285 MB/s read. I have it set up in AHCI and everything.
2. On the HD Tune Pro health screen, it says that the SSD has something like 2700 reallocated sectors, which pop up the warning status. Is this normal or a defective drive?
In any case, I am mostly happy with the drive and hope to get the issues fixed, if they are issues at all.
Thanks,
nparker.
