topic ssd performance issue or vaio firmware/driver update issue? in PCs & Accessories https://community.sony.ua/t5/pcs-accessories/ssd-performance-issue-or-vaio-firmware-driver-update-issue/m-p/18378#M48520 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello,<BR />I own a FW31ZJ vaio and recently I bought a ssd (Corsair Nova Series 64gb) replacing the old hdd.<BR />I don't know for sure if the ssd has issues or if the notebooks configuration limits the performance of the ssd.<BR />After installing a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64 I'm having small freezes when typing/create folders etc.<BR />These lag spikes in typing occur very often and they are starting to be annoying. When I type the yahoo messenger window goes in a non responding state for like a second and after that the letters appear quickly, or when I press send for the message it thinks for like half a second.<BR />I personally thought that this is a yahoo messenger problem, but now I see that when I try to create some folders or do other windows actions these freeze occurs too.<BR />All the configuration like indexing and caching etc for the normal hdd have been disabled since for the ssd they don't help. From what I read there are some option that may interfere with the ssd itself, if AHCI is enabled in the bios the ssd may have a sluggish behaviour. Since the vaio bios doesn't offer this option (security issues I guess) I was wondering maybe if VAIO tech should consider updating the bios giving us the option to set on or off the AHCI feature.<BR />Or if anyone knows more about ssd and windows configuration or even if they had this problem please share the info. I hardly doubt the fact that the ssd may have hardware or firmware issues.<BR />Thank you.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 27 May 2010 15:04:14 GMT GPSG 2010-05-27T15:04:14Z ssd performance issue or vaio firmware/driver update issue? https://community.sony.ua/t5/pcs-accessories/ssd-performance-issue-or-vaio-firmware-driver-update-issue/m-p/18378#M48520 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello,<BR />I own a FW31ZJ vaio and recently I bought a ssd (Corsair Nova Series 64gb) replacing the old hdd.<BR />I don't know for sure if the ssd has issues or if the notebooks configuration limits the performance of the ssd.<BR />After installing a fresh copy of Windows 7 x64 I'm having small freezes when typing/create folders etc.<BR />These lag spikes in typing occur very often and they are starting to be annoying.
