Intel were quite misleading, guess there's no trim in raid after all.
Although my low 4k scores may be to do with NCQ, which might not be enabled

TBH it's pointed out quite clearly what it [the driver] does its just we all chose, myself included, to assume it meant TRIM for RAID'd SSD's. :embarrassed:Quote:

thanks guys... I will go to the original 1x SSD 80gb Intel plan
Got 4k writes up to 46mb/s, reads are still the same, any ideas?
Not that I can really tell the difference when using the system, but no harm in trying to get more speed.
At the end of the day, the main benefit of RAID 0 is fast sequential read/writes.
And the main benefit of SSDs is reduced access time. The benefit of fast sequential read/writes is virtually irrelevant because they aren't used for large file storage (unless you're a nutter), they're used for lots of small files that need to be loaded quickly - like an operating system.
So it's not really going to change things - they'll bench amazingly well, but they won't actually make a difference you can see.
pretty good deal for a budget system. Not as RAID, but standalone with maybe a 3.5 sata drive for files.Quote:
