Hello,



..I found this laptop(asus k70ic) some weeks ago, and now I finally got some cash and bought an SSD(MX100) 128GB. I installed the windows on it, w7 ultimate.I ghet the WEI score of an only 5,9. With his old HDD it was also 5.2. I wonder why.

I´ve read that I should note care much about WEI score numbers.. but I have this BUT why so low.



The problem it seems to be with the writing, the reads are ok, as you can see in the SSD. I had a Samsung evo on an another asus laptop and everything worked well. Thing is that, Samsung have frimware update for their SSD´s, now is it me or there are not updates for MX100. I´ve been looking on to their site but seems like this SSD in particular have not updates which is really odd to me.



On UserBenckmark, it says something like, ( The boot partition is located on a SATA 3.0 SSD but it's only operating at SATA 2.0 speeds. If this system has a SATA 3.0 port then plugging the boot drive into it will improve system performance. )

I also been looking around but couldn´t find anything that help me, so I decided now to post it here, maybe some more experienced poeple can help me. I would really really apreciate your time.

Are those speeds normal?!

So you´re saying that that is normal to work on a laptop? I´ve seen this SSD with speeds write of 150, at least is what their specs say.
