Hi,
I just installed a fresh build of Windows 7 Pro on my new SSD.

Samsung 840 EVO

I ran the Samsung Magician performance benchmark and got the following results.
Sequential Read (MB/s) 5389 (UP TO 540)
Sequential Write (MB/s) 4283 (UP TO 520)
Random Read (IOPS) 152119 (UP TO 97000)
Random Write (IOPS) 89904 (UP TO 66000)

These results look good, but the software tells me
"Please confirm that your system is configured properly by consulting the "OS Optimatization" menu. You may also try running the "Performance Optimization" feature.

If the numbers look good, I'll take that to mean that the software displays the message after all tests, good or bad.

It shows that because it knows you haven't ran either of those options yet, all you did was enable RAPID mode.

Hi Palorim12,
I ran the optimization first, then benchmark, and then rapid mode (rebooted after that).
I then reran both tests.

Still shows that message.

Do you think those scores are where the drive should be at?

Disable rapid mode and then run the benchmarks and then post the results.
