OCZ Vertex 2 60gb seems slow...

[rogerdpack]

Most of my scores seem to be less than half of what other people with the same drive are getting.

Your numbers do appear about half mine. You may have gotten a "bad" second gen drive. You can check with ocz toolbox if your die size is 64Gb that's one of the "bad" 28nm chip ones.

Hello everyone.
A week ago I bought the OCZ Vertex 2 60GB too and guess what?
I get the same crappy speeds 🙁
MY M/B(ASUS P5k) has two controllers,the Jmicron SATA raid controller and one on the Intel's ICH9. I tried both IDE and AHCI modes on the first one but it was worst than the ICH9's.Here are some screenies:

Uh, not exactly shocking. Look at when I started this thread. Why did you buy one?

Have you tested the drive with ATTO?

If had read this thread beforehand I wouldn't buy this drive 🙁

Have you tested the drive with ATTO?

That's interesting : after I ran ATTO I saw tremendous difference in the results so, I ran crystaldisk again and set the test data to 00 and here are the results.Could the other users that posted their results earlier tell us what kind of test data they ran the crystaldisk with?

Definitely not a bad deal if you ask me. Personally I just bought an Intel 510 120GB (after reading the shootout review that was posted on Anandtech the other day). But it is hard to compare an $80 product to one that costs $200 more.
