Patriot SSD

I added a Patriot 128g SSD hard drive to my system a couple of months ago and don't believe I'm realizing the potential available. I found the AS SSD Benchmark and it confirms my suspicions. Does anyone know what settings might be incorrect? I do not overclock and I'm running an EVGA x58 board with a i7965 processor in Win 7x64, with 6 gig of DDR3 1600 RAM.

This is just a guess but I don't think you're running it in AHCI mode. Where it says "iaStor" it should say "msAHCI" ..AHCI mode is the preferred way if I remember correctly. I'm not a guru on these but that could be the issue

Thanks for the response. I have the drive set to AHCI in BIOS. Is there somewhere else it needs to be changed? Here are the Speccy specs.

in the same settings tab where you set the AHCI already, there should be another section that is something like "Run as IDE/AHCI/RAID"

Any idea where it might be?
