What were your stock runs when you got the drive? You just showed a TRIMless beat up SSD for a baseline (right?).

Also, did you give TRIM a chance to run or was this just post install?

And in the other thread about this FW upgarde I asked if it was destructive and dont recall getting answer. Is this FW upgrade destructive?

Thanks MIA!

EDIT: I just reread that thread. It doesnt appear to be destructive. Confirmed?

EDIT2: That thread is for G2 owners. ;)
 
I already said it wasnt destructive ED in that thread. Flash works fine and I havent had an issue since (nor performance degredation).
 
I take it back, this update is the same firmware as I installed 6 months ago.

Still fast :)

Thanks for that link...

Here are some before and after s/shots... I'm hopeful that trim will kick in over the next few days and restore the original performance + enhance them.

Left = Original fresh install
Middel = After 2 months of Windows 7 Ult 64-bit
Right = Today straight after the firmware upgrade
