Hello

I have since I bought the SSD massive Problems with my Computersystem, I don't know where, but I think the issues are caused by the SSD.

BSOD's, lagging mouse and slow loading programs. I have checked the SSD as main Partition and secondary drive. Tested under Win7 and currently on Windows 8. Tested all Rams, single with Memtest, updated Bios, checked all Settings on OS incl. Trim, using AHCI, Checked the right SATA3 port, used Intel/Win SATA Drivers, etc.

My System:
Intel Core i7 3770K BOX, 3.5GHz, LGA 1155
Samsung SSD 830 Series D-Kit, MLC, 128GB
Corsair Vengeance LP, 4x4GB, DDR3-1600, CL9 CML16GX3M4A1600C9B
Asus P8Z77-V, Z77

The attached images made by a new and clean windows 8 installation without any programs behind.

From the looks of the third image, you're not currently using the SSD as your main drive. You probably have noticed this already, but that third image shows that the SSD isn't the OS (main) drive, but Drive D:\ which is just a data drive, so to speak. The main OS drive looks like is on your 2TB Western Digital system. Which wouldn't be SUPER slow, but it certainly wouldn't be the SSD speed you're looking to achieve.

And from the rest of the pictures, As far as I can tell, (and I"m no expert, mind you) those tests you performed and showed pictures of all show a healthy drive. So why not try reinstalling windows again, but this time, during the installation process, point the installation to the SSD, rather than the 2TB. You have the right idea, just backwards. Set up the 2TB as a backup/data drive, and have the SSD as your OS/Boot drive.

Hope this helps some.

Got a message from Samsung. SSD is is broken and I get a new one. Speed alone is not very important and it wouldn't be detected without this test.. http://i.imgur.com/6jgruzD.png
