    Hello,

    These are my 512GB Samsung SSD benchmarks. I had some problems with the drivers and suffered from BSoDs every few hours. I fix that by changing some of the drivers.
    Now the laptop is working fine and so much more stable. But I want to make sure that the SSD is working fine so I recorded these benchmarks and I hope someone can help me by confirming that these numbers are fine or that it is not.

    I switching to AHCI before installing windows 10 pro and didn't get back to RAID again.

    I also want to say thanks a lot to PhilTheHill and GoNz0 :D :D .. They helped me a lot through out fixing my laptop problems in this great thread " http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...ean-install-guide-custom-iso-download.789769/ "
    They have been so much more useful than Dell, Microsoft, Intel, ....etc tech guys.

    Hmmm - I have comparable scores, except on the 4K Q32T1 - Is it because my drive is >50% full?
