Hi
I have recently installed a supertalent 32G SSD drive FEM32GFDL in a dell mini 9 with winxp. I am very new at this, But the speed of my computer is very, very slow now. I am wondering if it could be the SSD is not right? If it is i can possibly return it. I ran a test with HDTunePro and got the following:



Test capacity: full

Read transfer rate
Transfer Rate Minimum : 0.2 MB/s
Transfer Rate Maximum : 57.2 MB/s
Transfer Rate Average : 28.7 MB/s
Access Time : 6.02 ms
Burst Rate : 14.2 MB/s
CPU Usage : 4.6%

I have no clue. Can anyone tell me if this is working properly by this?
Thanks!

Hi.
Thanks for your response. Do you think the drive is defective so that I should try to get my money bacK?

You said: "Yours is probably slow due to the fact of it being close to full, when a SSd is almost full they slow down."
If you are meaning the drive being full...my drive is less than 1/4 full. If you mean the test results saying "test capacity full" possibly that is in reference to a "full" test?
The most important thing I need to know now is if this ssd seems defective?
Thanks so much!
