Just picked up my 50GB Vertex 2 and installed W7 on it but seems like the Benchmark result is not linear. Here's a pic of what I mean. Is this normal? The reviews of SSD I see online show a linear graph with consistent dips.
AS SSD Score:
So I loaded back my WinXP OS and ran another bench and got this:
Drive was formatting in the Windows 7 install before loading the OS on it. It's plugged in to a GA-P55A-UD3's regular SATA ports. MB has PCH Control in IDE and GSATA in AHCI. Having PCH in AHCI doesnt load the OS.
