OCZ Agility 3 sata 3 - read 525mb/s and write 475mb/s Pretty impressed with it.

Couple of questions though?

Trim support I am assuming windows 7 takes care of that?

I've done a windows exp test and I get a score of 7.6 for it. but I'm running it through native IDE or whatever it says in bios.

Although there are others Raid 0 and AHCI. When I try switching to AHCI through bios it gets to the point where it says loading operating system and just stays at that I have to reset the pc and same with Raid.

Having looked at the raid options it needs to have 2 HD's linked which would mean mixing my SSD with a standard HD which I dont think would work?

Looking around the net most people say that SSD's dont need a raid setup as it wouldn't be any quicker with the drive?
