    Samsung 840 Pro SSD Review @ [H]

    I just recently raided two of these (256gb's) together for my OS drive. AS SSD came out to 898 SEQ read and 450 write. Using the ASUS rampage IV extreme with RST 12.0 to keep trim. Look about right? i thought raiding two of these would double my write?

    Originally i installed my OS on my only crucial M4 ssd in ahci, once loaded i updated the bios. I dont remember what it came with. When i said set up for UEFI, i just meant CSM was set to UEFI on everything. It just finally clicked that i need to actualy format for GPT first...im slowing...

    Cant get RAID working on Rampage IV extreme

    So i had everything set up for UEFI, only thing listed under boot options was my non UEFI flash drive. Got to the install and loaded the 3.6 iastorA x64 driver, it took and the error went away. Proceeded with the install, it rebooted after a bit just to come back to the beginning of the install...

    Yes, i don't remember what bios was loaded when i installed it but 3602 was an update so i flashed it. I'm using both black and white cables on the Samsung drives:) So my intent is to get these up and running and *when* i do, is it possibly to migrate my OS to my 128 crucial m4 to have it...

    Got the DVD off amazon years ago, Win 7 Ult, ill try to one you linked. I don't think it's a bad drive due to the fact that i could load windows on my EVGA classified x58 and raid two raptors in raid 0 no problem. I did this early last month before upgrading. Before upgrading my two raptors to...

    Cant get RAID working on Rampage IV extreme

    Tried the 11.7 RST drivers, no go still. Getting this error "no newer devices could be found, please check to make sure they are on the installation media" I recreated the raid array before trying this also. What about the Samsung magician software, can windows format them with the OS...

    Cant get RAID working on Rampage IV extreme

    I typed in "list disk" last night, but it only listed my flash drive. If i unplugged it, nothing showed up. Does this mean something is wrong with the two new SSD's? Fri night i was getting the unsigned driver errors, and the install started out with me being able to select x86 or x64. Trying...
