Hi,
I'm confused which nforce driver I should use for in9-32x max ?
OS winxp x64 + 2 of Western Digital Caviar RE2 WD7500AYYS 750GB 7200 RPM 16MB (None Raid Setup)
I tried the latest "64bit package v1.8 for Windows XP x64".My burst speed with this driver doesn't get above 125mb it seems low to me. Any suggestions ?
P.S> With my old hdd seagate 320gb I was getting 160mb burst speed.

Don't see really where's the issue here this needs more details that v1.8 will fly on 201MB/s on SataIDE burst... So that kinda kills the theory of this issue being on screen at full. Might be because those Caviars are optimized to work as raid, but I also know those drives are damn fast alone even.
Either way as said don't now regonize the issue any where here.
(This in an optional idea. but v9.99.04 as designed to raid and v9.99.09 was designed for SataIDE/AHCI. However, usually same serie of drivers follows the same style. You could try the so called 'RAID performance pack' from same topic you got that v1.8 with v9.99.09. No worries this will go in as the previous v1.8, but I strongly recommend you update this v9.99.09 straight from the SataIDE folder & with the Device Manager over the previous. Do the same on all the Serial-ATA Controllers there. and check after this under 'Disk Drives' Western digital > properties > check Write caching & Advanced Performance.... (And do this to both WDs there is) and see what happens)

perhaps you should read my cleanup .reg file inside every fernando package. nvata was used with 6.xx drivers and so it is left behind unless you clean it up while doing new driver installation.
same with every driver on there. You should be looking for nvgtsXX.inf file.. update with that through device manager straight all the Serial-ATA controllers with the 9.99.09 package. btw, just in matter of curiosity where do you get such readings 120-126mb/s?

here's what I did so far I installed nforce raid performance driver from setup file then checked the drivers according to your readme file then used optional .reg file , rebooted. Those reading I'm getting from Computer Management -> Nvidia nForce Serial ata Controller-> Port0 -> Speed Test
P.S> sorry going to sleep now it's too early here.

yeah, ok.. that 'Speed test' ain't that reliable. You should use something like 'HD Tach' to test speeds.. and it sounds correct. |

Thank You Sir,
tried hd tach which showed 210-214mb burst speed. Do you know is there a way to squeeze a bit more of performance ? |
