    Haven't tried that

    Dunno what to use it for, yet. FF doesn't need to be THAT fast.

    I might do it tomorrow, if I can summon up the required enthusiasm. Not been in a mood to tinker much lately.

    I've looked into perfectdisk since you mentioned it, and diskeeper as well. I might get perfectdisk, now, sounds like it won't do any damage, and may do some good. It's a christmas sale on as well, so I may pay for it.

    Indeed. As long as I have money, I like supporting worthwhile stuff.

    Right now, on my current main rig, I actually think I've got nothing installed that's not either freeware or paid for (usually after I tried it, or an earlier version "for free", obviously).

    I like how that kind of lets me have the moral high ground when arguing in favour of filesharing.

    (I've got fuckloads of downloaded TV-shows and movies on the storage drive, obviously. They'll be aired sooner or later anyhow )

    Right, right. But you will try it first, no?

    There's a trial available iirc, and I have tried an earlier version as well.

    It just dropped to 7.5 on disk performance after the latest patch of tinkering. On the other hand ATTO shows it being smoother than ever, whilst HD Tach now tells me my burst is at 4147.8MB/S

    Fix Y/N?

    No.

    What tinkering did you do?
    Yesterday I did two full installs and my drive scores are worse than ever.
    I'm unhappy.

    Enabled hard disk data cache for the whole array in the matrix drivers, tried new drivers, etc.

    After I posted that I tried a 'tony-trim' (PD + AS-Clean with FF ticked) which initially looked like it screwed me, but things seem to have recovered now, pretty much.

    I'll experiment some more with it, but right now it seems like it didn't do much, possibly because I had less performance degradation than I suspected.
