It seems I'm having some major issues with my 2 drives. (see tests below) I've done a lot of research into this and seems a lot of people were able to fix it in ways I am not. I've installed the latest firmware update from Samsung that "fixes" poor performance on older files. (Samsung Performance Restoration) I've checked to make sure the drive is hooked up to the correct sata ports. I've checked my bios to make sure the drive is in the correct mode. I've even put on of the drives on a separate controller (marvel controller) and still no luck. I've installed various drivers like "Intel Rapid Storage Tech" (crashed my computer) I feel like i've tried everything with no luck. Anyone have any ideas?
*Update*
One thing I did notice is that when i'm in safe mode the drive seems to perform MUCH better.
