I just got one of the new Kingston 40 gig ssd's from newegg. I just connected it as a second drive for now just to test it, I'll install a new OS later. I started windows xp, initialized and formatted it. Then ran Hdtune.
I was only getting 128 MB/sec for reads. The min and max where the about the same, the graph was a perfectly flat line. Burst rate was around 90, access time was zero.
My mobo, asus k8s-mx only has sata I. I thought would get I 150 MB/sec. If I bought a SATA II controller card do you think I would be able to realize the full potential of the ssd?
Would this be a good option
