Chipset and Sata Drivers?

[martinth]

Hey guys.
I'm running Windows 7 x64 (AHCI mode)
I have a 5400RPM Sata drive (only one..no raid or anything).

Would downloading and installing the Intel Chipset Drivers, along with the intel matrix manager drivers give me an performance boost?

Very little. If you want more performance, buy a faster hard drive or SSD. 5400rpm is pretty slow for current hard drives.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Storage drivers very rarely contribute to any sort of performance gain, unless of course, we're talking about Nvidia storage controllers...
