[Solved] OCZ Vertex 3 Running Slow

Jan 12, 2012 10:55AM PST

This Tip displays how I solved my own issue with "OCZ Vertex 3 Running Slow"

Mobo: GIGABYTE - EX58-UD3R
SSD: 2 x OCZ Vertex 3 64GB

Issue 1: only have SATA2 Mobo RAID

Test 1. RAID-0 2 drives running at 110MBps!?

Solution: Go to Motherboard Manufacturer and install all RAID and Controller related Drivers and Applications. Rebuild RAID Array, format, re-test. Now 500MBps, yeepee Happy

In my case it was the Intel RAID driver and Intel Rapid Storage Technology application that helped.
As a bonus, this also sped up my original RAID setup. (I have 2 RAIDs setup)

Hope this helps someone with same issue where SSD Drive was slow.
