Readycache slow SSD (firmware 2.0.0)

SanDisk announces SSD Readycache for having a rate of 480 MB/s Tests like hardocp.com seem to confirm this.

I ordered two Readycache SSDs from two different suppliers and tried in two different (AMD and Intel) PC. There was a gain of performance but not as big as I expected. So I measured the raw performance of the SSD Readycache SSD and they reach only a flow seq. 200 - 230 MB/s. The firmware version is 2.0.0.

SanDisk package a much slower in its new SSD Readycache SSD?

I just made a descent of the AS SSD Benchmark and saw very similar numbers to this criterion of [H] ardOCP (453 MB/s sequential read speed). So I think it is reasonable to assume that the current single firmware revision is not responsible for your performance problem.

  • Application of NEWBIE - SSD firmware update help

    Hello

    New Member looking for advice on where to start with maintenance of Sandisk ssd firmware update.

    I use an SSD on an acer AOD270 netbook. So, small screen, no CD drive etc. I couldn't not, fo are the life of me, get my Win7 starter HDD cloned on the SSD and start with reliability.

    I made the big jump, installed the SSD, installed Linux Mint with all faults, made a few adjustments and controls for noatime and trim and I am very satisfied with what I have.

    I would now like to update SSD firmware. I searched these forums and a couple other places, but I'm still a little lost. Y at - it a kind soul who can tell me the right place to start or a thread where this issue has already been resolved?

    I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance.

    The SanDisk SSD dashboard notifies you when FW updates are available, but it is for Windows only. Since you are on Linux, you can keep a watch on this forum. If a FW update is released it will be posted and stickied at the top of this map. They will post a link to the ISO standard for the FW. You can burn it on a CD or create a USB bootable out of it. Below, a message from FW update for the Extreme Pro SSD for an example. There is currently no FW for the Ultra II SSD update.

  • Very slow SSD OCZ Vertex 3 Pavilion MSI MS-7184 problem

    Hi guys, hat

    I ve becomes a gift from a friend in the form of a Pavilion Desktop PC.

    The first problem is that I don't really know the type of flag of it.

    What is certain, is that it is equipped with a

    • Card mother MSI MS-7184
    • 2 GB OF RAM
    • Radeon HD 6570 chart and it has the
    • BIOS version 3.48
    • HP P/N: 5188-3246

    This is my second (big) problem with it:

    I have buyed an OCZ Vertex 3 SSD, hoping I am going to upgrade and increase my speed to WIN 7 Ultimate. Not my day... it's so slooooow. I tried bothways, that is, copy of the system partition on the new SSD and new installation WIN7 Ultimate on the SSD drive.

    I searched on the net on SSD include slow questions and the only things I found were that I have to activate the option to access HDD AHCI in the BIOS, option that I have not in my BIOS.

    All help aprecciated!

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Please report the number of HP for the PC product.

    Do you know what level of firmware your Vertex 3 is running?   Firmware version 2.22 is the last.  If your firmware is down 2.06, then you need to upgrade gradually.  I would not be to update the firmware if you decide to return the SSD drive. See my information below.

    I think that the card mother MSI has only SATA I, which is very slow for a VERTEX 3 allowing to operate at full capacity.  Frankly, I'm surprised that the VERTEX 3 works even on a SATA what should I wear as much SATA III SSD will not work on a SATA I port.  Review this OCZ VERTEX 3 document.

    You can see if you can return and exchange for another SSD that is backward compatible with SATA I.  Maybe the Vertex 2 or the agility-2 would be better for your needs.

  • MacBook Pro 2009 with slow SSD on El Capitan

    Hi all

    I recently put on the upgrade to El Capitan of Mountain Lion, that my Macbook Pro 2009, updated with a crucial v4 SSD and 8 GB ram, was very happy.

    Had a very difficult installation that hung a few times, but finally got it set up after resetting the PRAM.

    Since he has been very, very slow - beachball right turns and towers - opening an application are a 5 minute job. Printing takes 10. The SATAII connection shows as being to 3 GB, so it should be good. Any other El Capitan on a 2009 MBP running seem happy with it. I activated the trim, it made no difference.

    I was not able to find someone else in line with the same config or problem, so grateful if someone has experience - I was wondering if it is worth getting an SSD different, or even the original HDD back in?

  • Is it essential to update SSD Firmware?

    Hi guys,.

    Is is absolutely essential to update SSD´s firmware to work right? I bought in 2012 of the EVO 840 Samsung 256 Gb, never used and now I would like to install in my MacBook Pro 2012. I'm afraid that I could upgrade the firmware in a bad way and end up doing a 'brick' of my SSD.

    Any ideas? Thank you!

    It depends, but generally you should.  I had a Crucial SSD that requires the firmware update to make it work properly.  New firmware is created for a reason by the manufacturer and should not be dismissed.  Contact technical support for Samsung for a definitive answer.

    Ciao.

  • Slow SSDS on Pavilion G6 1367SL

    Hello

    I just bought a laptop Pavilion 1367sl G6. I've updated the internal drive with a new Corsair Force 3 SSD 240 GB Sata III 6 GB.

    I use Win 7 64 bit fully patched. I ran a Benchmark of hard drive and it seems that it is running more slowly than expected.

    R/w, it's 200 MB/s. I checked the TRIM and AHCI and everything seems ok.

    Could this be a problem with the sata cable supplied with the HP laptop?

    If so, is it possible to change?

    If not, how can I improve the performance of disk?

    Thank you

    Anyway, you have some tips to increase my HARD drive performance?

  • X 240 slow SSD

    I bought a X 240 yesterday, new, with a Samsung SSD's MZ7TE256HMHP. Installed the operating system preloaded, all drivers have been updated, but the performance of the SSD are lower than normal.

    I used AS SSD for checking and reading and writing sequential are limited to 133 MB/s, which is about 1/4 of the announced SSD speed.

    I called Lenovo for USA and UK support and they both said "sorry we can not help you. They have offered no workaround, the alternative solution, nothing.

    The operating system installed 56 put updated in 50 minutes. The stop time is 45 seconds, give or take. Startup time is somewhat better but takes much more than expected.

    I am at a loss here, have no idea what to do. The support of Lenovo said that if the diagnostics are green, then they can't do anything. And yet I find myself with a catastrophic performance (for one SSD).

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Not a problem more. Thanks for the reply, but I've been sorted.

    It turns out it's a software disk encryption applied to the company who has sucked, but then took me to upgrade to a version of the latter and performance, while reaching is not 100%, increased significantly.

  • Tecra M10 cannot install OS using disc SSD Kingston

    Hi all.

    I am a computer tech and can usually find a way to fix something myself, (rock Google!).

    But recently I had a Kingston SSDNOW 64 GB drive and decided to install in my Tecra M10 age of 12 months. 4 weeks ago I had a full head of hair, now I am completely bald.

    The drive is recognized in the BIOS, but whenever I try to install Windows on it, I get nothing. I tried the recovery DVDs XP, recovery DVDs Vista The, the "free" upgrade Windows 7 recovery DVD, and a DVD Vista & Windows 7 retail. I can't drive to be recognized to install Windows.

    I can copy the existing disk image, but it starts the splash screens and blue. Normally I think that driver RAID or hard disk controller, but Kingston assures me that there is no requirement on the one hand, (and a standard SATA drive does not require a, I tried).

    I checked and installed the latest version of the BIOS for laptop. There is no update available for the SSD firmware. So I find myself with a laptop that always uses a slow, (relatively) hard drive and a very pretty silver rectangular Clipboard.

    Can anyone think of anything whatsoever that I missed. Anyone working for Toshiba can tell me if there is a BIOS update for this problem (I search the forum and found many people who are struggling for SSDS working in Toshiba laptops)?

    The sad thing is that the former other laptop I got for my son accepts the player and works fine!
    I had many prefer to buy Toshiba, but I want SSD technology rather sooner than later, and if Toshiba does not go to support, I might have to change of Lenovo or Acer.

    Rob.

    > Normally I would RAID driver or controller hard drive, but Kingston assures me that there is no requirement on the one hand, (and a standard SATA drive does not require one, I tried).

    I think you have misunderstood something the SSD drive does not need SATA drivers BUT the fact the OS (Win XP, Vista or Win 7)!

    The SATA drivers are needed to recognize the HDD/SSD under Windows OS.
    New generation of portable supports the new SATA controllers that require SATA drivers.

    You will find on the European driver Toshiba Intel Storage Manager page

    Intel Storage Manager contains the SATA drivers that are required to install the OS.

  • BSOD after with SSD Corsair Force 3 in Qosmio F750-11 t of energy saving

    Hello

    Can someone give me an advisor the procedure?

    I bougt the 'best' garage portable Toshiba Cosmio F750-11 t and replaced the HARD ordinary with a super fast SSD Corsair Force 3 240 GB drive. It starts Windows 7 64 bit teacher within 15 seconds and stops it in 7 seconds. Just what I need.

    Of course, I reinstalled Windows 7 64 bit correctly, installed all the drivers of Toshiba real, all Windows updates. Device Manager shows no problems and everything works fine and fast
    ... except...
    the blue screen that appears after the laptop should wake up from power saving mode.
    I did a work around by disabling the powersaving: 2 energy lever % of the battery, the laptop just turned off. But it is only a work around not a solution.

    If I were one of several forums and I saw that the SSD should be good, but the laptop is not ready to properly manage this a fast SSD. They say that the manufacturer must install a upgraded BIOS.

    There will soon be a soultion by a new BIOS? Or should I replace my SSD delicious and expensive? Or re - insert the original, more power of your slow?

    Greetings
    Martin

    Hello

    First of all, I wouldn't at all the gossip that someone says something.
    Why must it be a BIOS problem?
    Some of the F750 are equipped with the hybrid 4 G HARD disk, these drives are very fast so I wouldn't say that it is certainly a BIOS problem.

    In addition, you n t use the image of Toshiba set to cause of system is not explicitly excluded

    At least the SSD could cause this since it s not 100% sure if its fully compatible
    I think that all of this must be respected

    Of course, you can put the original HARD drive and can test the laptop using this HARD drive.
    You can also test other SSDS

    Have you checked if the SSD firmware must be updated?
    Some manufacturers of SSDS provides updates of the firmware.

  • HP laptop laptop 15-s104na: replace the HDD with SSD Crucial

    I have a HP/Compaq 15 - s104na with 2213 motherboard and BIOS F.24 with a 500 GB Toshiba HARD drive running Win8.1 (OEM).  Also have an M500 Crucial 240 GB SSD (firmware MU05) that Win7 worked in an old laptop Lenovo.  Thought I would try installing the SSD in laptop computer to speed things up a bit.

    However, although I have been able to clone HARD drive SSD (SSD connected via a USB/SATA bridge), when I installed it in the laptop, it didn't start.  The BIOS has been recognizing the Crucial SSD in the Boot Options, but then failed to boot from it returning 0xc0000225 (required is not connected).  Running the Recovery Manager HP of DVD has failed, too, is not surprising that DISKPART > LIST DISK did not show the SSD drive.

    Out of curiosity, I then tried a fresh install of the OS of a download of MS 8.1 using a generic key that gave the same result - not found disk.

    So, I guess there is something inconsistent between the motherboard for laptop and SSD Crucial.  Runs the compatibility check tool SSD Crucial returns zero compatible solutions, even if I didn't require any special drivers SATA SSD.  Looks like I'll stick with the existing HARD drive (which, to be fair, is not otherwise slow...!)

    Update my previous problem of BIOS without recognizing an SSD Crucial of M500.

    Person to HP or Crucial has been able to provide a solution, but now, I found a good solution to workaround where I installed the SSD drive in the optical drive Bay, leaving the original HARD disk.  Now the BIOS recognizes the SSD, and I did a clean install of Windows 10 on it as my C drive.  I leave my data on the HARD drive as my D drive.  Fortunately, I don't want an internal optical drive.

    So, I now have the benefits of an SSD while also having a lot of data storage space!

    Hope this can help others avoid hours of frustration...

  • Windows 7 SSD optimization option

  • Intel SSD 750 series

    In a moment of weakness I just bought an Intel SSD series 750 800 GB HHHL (SSDPEDMW800G4x1), mainly due to a decline in prices of $100 (i.e. CDN $729) CDN.

    I was looking to replace a rest of spinning by car, but find myself questioning this decision as the 750 series write speed is specified only 800 MB/s, which is much slower than my Samsung 950 Pro m2 (1527 MB/s) and the four Samsung 850 Pro in a Raid 0 configuration (1833 MB/s).

    However, I can live with the read speed of the 750 that is specified to 2000 MB/s.

    The idea is to use the SSD 750 instead of the current system SSD drive and use it for various no video and image data, which is currently on a HARD drive.

    My quandry, should I return the Intel SSD 750 (have'nt opened the package yet) and wait for a more rapid decline in prices of PCIe version, or am I being too critical...

    Anyone here using this drive and what are your impressions?

    What I wanted, it was speed cache, it is to say when the cache handles all the instructions of reading and writing for reader requests gives significantly better performance because the ram is much faster than the disks or sata controllers. This performance is normally called gust or peak transfer rates. Once the cache fills well performance begins to normalize that the sata controller can manage ideally. The drive itself also limits this based on the speed and latency the reader can process these requests queued. More it takes to completely fill the cache over the drive or raid maintains the burst transfer rate. Once the cache fills although transfer rates begin to fall. 8 GB cache is standard for most of the highend SAS controllers and gives you an excellent performance for the raid because raid instructions are stored in the cache and manipulated in real time of the RAM of the system or the disc. This allows the controller handle tasks as fast as possible without waiting on disks to provide more data or be ready for more data to write.

    SSD drives will slow down over time of writing and deletion to allocate their share files. This is due to how the SSD firmware avoid writing permanent erase cycles. You can return an SSD performance unprecedented in formatting or by writing zeros for it. When using the SSD for media raids, it becomes a standard maintenance process, you want to do periodically.
