        @Breffni-Potter The catch is it can only work with 1 SSD, has to be a Samsung, and can't be part of a RAID. But yes, it's just amazing. It makes M2 and PCIE SSDs look slow as dickles.

            @creayt Time of that writing is the release of the 840 EVO, so they may've changed some things since its release but very informative.

                @Breffni-Potter "RAPID was specifically designed to not add any additional risk to user or system data, even in the event of a power-loss. In fact, RAPID strictly adheres to Windows
                conventions in its treatment of any buffered writes in DRAM -- RAPID obeys all
                “flush” commands, so any writes buffered by RAPID will make it to the persistent
                media just like the Windows OS cache or the HDD cache. "

                  You actually beat my score on this by about 100 points, trying to figure out wtf. My best guess is that since your base clock is 4.0 and mine is 3.3 that was the difference. I wonder if there's a way to OC my base clock and not just the turbo boost ceiling. Anyone know on this? here are my XTU settings.

                    Haha. Imagine if I over clock my system 🙂

                    It's got plenty of cooling and grunt to do it. So why not.

                    Oh and the system is coming up to 2 years old nearly.

                          @Breffni-Potter Can you over clock the base frequency or just the turbo boost?

                            I can over-clock the base because it's a K series. I reckon I could get it up to .6 with headroom.

                                  How do you do that? Overclock the base. That's what I need to do, right now my base is 3.3 ( stock ) but my turbo is 4.5, I need to get the base up. I'm using XTU if that helps.

                                    I've got a fancy motherboard that lets me do it 🙂 To my knowledge clock speed is always done on the board rather than on the OS.

                                      @Breffni-Potter That's helpful thanks. I'll check out my BIOS which I think is pretty locked down but we'll see.
