Heres direct... Non-Beta Final version!
well now we need anvil to test this. he is the ICH expert :)
Hey everyone.. Just updated to the WHQL drivers 1046. Here is the atto with my drives still dirty as can be. I still have never done a secure erase and my 60GB vertex2's raided are about 60% full.

These vertex raid 0 are still reflecting close to theoretical highs for read and writes. Very cool. The old 9 series drivers never let me get above 500 in read and write in the state they are now with ATTO. Let me load some other benches see if anything else changed. :up:
No degrading in performance.. Writes are actually a bit up :up:

You can compare this to my last one when I first posted about the new drivers.
anyone running this driver in their 24/7 machine?
No, not for 24/7 usage.
I've been using it on my bench machine for quite some time and there are a few minor issues.
1) If you've got a SF based SSD, you can't update the firmware.
2) A couple of times I've been unable to format drives.
Performance wise, all in all, a bit better than the 9.X drivers.
I'll be keeping 9.6 on my main rig for now.
thanks m8Quote:

I am about to start playing with RAID drives and would like to know any thoughts and or negative on these versions. I plan on testing 2xC300 256 followed by 2XSamsung 470 256 followed by....hmmm can I get 4 256 in RAID 0?
Why is Intel not putting these on their official site?
Just installed these today, haven't had any problems with them or the previous versions which I've been running with since they came out.Quote:

Is that a gut feeling we should just trust :ROTF: or did you actually benchmark a tangible difference you could tell us about? :shrug:Quote:

Drivers that will kill your data with a Windows Hardware Quality Labs rating? Hmm.
Does these improve anything if your not running raid? (I am just using a Vertex 1 in my Laptop)
Btw on a sidenote, whats the current release date for intels 3. gen drives?
@peakr...emphasis added bro.
if it was done, it would be released. proceed at your own risk. might be bad, might not. regardless of WHQL you must take into account that it is a 'leaked' version, and not officially posted on intel site. there is a reason for that. what the reason is, im not privy too, and neither are you. so like i said, take your chances.Quote:
