Do you have it hooked up to the Marvell 9128 Sata III ports or the Intel Sata II ports? Best speed I've gotten on my x58a-UD7 on the Marvell is like 350 read, that is with the msahci driver not the Marvell one. Raid 0 on the Intel controller I'm getting 560 read.

Boot time on that board will also be slower just because of the older style BIOS.
