A quick note: I have AHCI setup up, and running Vista so no TRIM available. It's also using SATA3.
I just got a new one of these drives. Right away it was running rather sluggish, so I went through all the optimizations that were recommended and got it running about where it's benchmarked to be at.
After shutting it down for the night, the next day it was running incredibly slow. I toggled those settings again, and it got back up to where it was before after restarting, but even slightly lower than before.
As the night went on it got even a little slower.
Here's two screenshots of the tests. (One after booting up and having the issue, and another after reconfiguring optimizations and restarting.)

I'm not really having a lot of luck finding specific information on this type of problem, and I don't know if I'm just ignorant of something or it's just a bad drive.
Totally thankful for any advice or ideas. ^_^
