Slow write scores after loading Intel RSTe Drivers

Storval

Yeah guys, need your help. Downloaded the new and older RSTe F6 drivers from Intel, I went into Device manager and updated the driver through there. I tried both the iaSTOR and aiACHI Win8 64 drivers and they both give me Horrible write speeds and write IOPS. Read speeds are both maxed (IOPS and MBs) for my SSD (Samsung 840 Pro).

Am I missing something why is my write performance so bad?

Anyone have a link to Microsoft OEM drivers so I can at least revert back to those?

Thanks for any assistance.

The RSTe Driver designed for stability use, not speed. So if you prefer speed try out those Intel RST 12.0.0.1083 WHQL .:p

If you're truly wanting to get high read/write scores you will read through this to find out how:
Patched TRIM in RAID!

IDK about 12.0.x, but I have read that Win7 W/11.2.x RST drivers are the ones to get for the fastest speeds. But ppl have trouble getting them to install, and I have not seen anybody give an instruction thread yet covering both OSes, RAID, and the multiple boot/partition modes (such as UEFI mode GPT partitions). So since you gave us nil for your system build, no one can give you a proper recommendation.

Overclocking is useless to me if it is not rock stable.
