Access time is also very impressive under W7 and when it came to CPU usage, W7 blew Vista to pieces scoring -1% usage under every test. Again, this might be a reporting error; but if it was, the results were very consistent.

hmmm....looks like much of the results apart from burst are within the margin of error.

at least someone did their reading :)

i for one don't care as i went from a SSD to a normal HDD as SSD technology is still far from mature and i couldn't stand the horrendous average writes and the constant freezing on MLC based drives

I went to a seagate barracuda 320gb 7200.11 16 mb cache

TBH I can't tell a bit read performance difference between the two... I can however notice substantial improvements in the write category and the price was significantly less, hopefully i'll be able to ditch the SSD on ebay soon
