Hello,

Your SSD is set to IDE mode in your BIOS, you need AHCI to get the maximum performace out of your SSD.

Notice in AS SSD on the top left it says "PCIIDE BAD".

Follow these instructions to change your computer to AHCI:


To resolve this issue, enable the AHCI driver in the registry before you change the SATA mode of the boot drive. To do this, follow these steps:
1.Exit all Windows-based programs.
2.Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.
3.If you receive the User Account Control dialog box, click Continue.
4.Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesMsahci

5.In the right pane, right-click Start in the Name column, and then...

7.On the File menu, click Exit to close Registry Editor.


This was found here: http://www.ithinkdiff.com/how-to-enable-ahci-in-windows-7-rc-after-installation/

There is also a regedit file you can use on that website that will do exactly that.

Do this and try out your benchmark again and re post it and see what it shows.

What exactly did you do? Did you read the whole article thing first?

Did you do the software switch before changing to AHCI in the BIOS? If not, change it back to IDE, reboot and do the software switch first.
