i am sort of new to the whole SSD benchmarking scene, the reason behind which led me to benchmark my SSD is that recently i had a huge problem sometimes computer would get stuck for example while installing the corsair link driver, updating to windows 10 1511 version or using display driver uninstaller(DDU) in safemode, or for example many times i tried to update the firmware of my SSD it would always get stuck during that always and i had restart my computer and my ssd would get corrupt i had to plug it in another sata slot for it to start working again have it repaired via command prompt from my windows 10 bootable USB setup repair ...so first i thought my rams were faulty so i ran the memtest86 for ram for almost 1 hour and 40 mins it had no errors. Then i thought something was wrong with my CPU i have overclocked it 4.3 Ghz at 1.235V right now i have been stress testing it continuously for 3 hours 20 mins till and its still going on prime95 it has temps at 80C and everything is still fine ...i still had all these issues when i had my motherboard on deafult setting of the fear thata something was wrong with the overclocking...so i thought my SSD which is a silicon power SP60 240 GB on AHCI has gone bad or something i bought it brand new 16 months ago ... and last but not the least before all of these issues started and during my period of its use sometimes my windows would randomly get stuck even when i had a different mobo, different rams and a different CPU but i always had the same SSD, my windows would get stuck after a week or so and would be all fine after a restart ... it never happened while playing games because they are all on hard drives... so please tell me is my benchmark of my SSD good enough

That looks like it's connected to SATA2 instead of SATA3.Comparing to mine the only difference worth mentioning is with sequential read and write which is about double that. (487/440).
Total score is 587 which shows that sequential scores are least important.
4K is 27.20/58.47
4K-64 is 154.46/131,23
Access time 0.104/0.006

This is much better than my Kingston V300 and is not much less then so much touted Samsung 840 evo,

But mine over the past 16 months made the desktop get stuck and it would fix itself later on different mobos, Rams and processors...and many other issues which I have mentioned in my first post . Should I buy the Samsung 840 Evo 250 gb or the corsair LE 480GB the funny part is they both are almost same price ... But corsair has more storage ...I am just confused and I am glad you answered no one seemed to care :,(

the moment i opened SSD-Z software which link you gave me my windows got stuck just like whenever i try to upgrade the firmware of my SSD from its manufactures software, i ordered today a samsung 850 pro 256gb ssd to replace it , did i make the right choice ?
 
The reason for removing other drives during windows installation is that BOOT files and partitions may be spread over 2 drives and than your main drive would not boot without one. This way it's avoided. Once windows are installed you don't need to wait for updates. Once you install old HDDs you may want to check in Disk management and change letters for them if they are different than before.

Make sure you turn on rapid mode, you will enable some insane speeds out of that drive

Well i just wanted to inform you that i have purchused 2 Samsung Sata 850 Evo SSD 500GB in the last 5 months an they both have completely gone to bloody hell an conrupted my systems an drives without me doing anything to cause this i managed to repair one of them but the second one it plain evil with A MIND OF ITS OWN straight from the seed of chucky out to destroy all computers an make my life hell but i will say that some of Samsungs SSD drives arent bad i have had good luck with the sata 850 evo 4T an the msata 250GB 850 evo an the 950 pro m2sata 1T but for some reason me an alot of people i kncow an build/repair custom PC's for have had alot of issues with the Sata 850evo 500GB crashing/freezing/corupting an just completely un-reliable an wouldnt reconmend ever buying the samsung 850 evo 500GB in 2.5" sata but the same drive in msata or m2sata have worked without any issues an are able to to read at up to 2024mbs an write at 1765mbs (mine will) but best advice i can give is the samsung 850evo in 500GB are a great drive to install but only if msata or m2sata (will last longer an operate smoother with alot less issues) an if you buy it in 2.5" sata instead plan on having alot of problems an head achs an to save alot of time/problems in the future is to make sure you have a complete backup an system image an create driver disc/repair disc/ recovery disc an a bootable usb drive or cd/dvd ..... thanks for your time
