    Well I've been running some hard drive benches using ATTO and seem to think for Win7 the native MS Sata driver is faster than the nVidia nForce driver.
    These tests were run under Win7 x64 after running the wiper tool and a fresh reboot after each test due to changing the sata driver. Thinking it was a fluke I decided to rerun after changing the driver back and the results are consistent.

    I ran these tests on this laptop M980NU/NP9860 (see sig) using the Supertalent GX 256gb SSD which uses the Indilinx's Barefoot Controller.

    Just curious if anyone else has seen this type of differences using their SSD and what scores are you getting with what SSD, Driver, OS, and machine.
