[QUOTE="athensga80, post: 1145636, member: 180429"] I recently installed a 500gb Momentus XT hybrid drive in my MBP. I have noticed improvements in loading of applications and in bootup time. However, when I recently ran Xbench it gave me these results for the disk test portion. Disk Test 49.48 Sequential 113.92 Uncached Write 126.54 77.70 MB/sec 4K blocks Uncached Write 162.33 91.85 MB/sec 256K blocks Uncached Read 64.15 18.78 MB/sec 4K blocks Uncached Read 183.06 92.00 MB/sec 256K blocks Random 31.61 Uncached Write 9.37 0.99 MB/sec 4K blocks Uncached Write 274.42 87.85 MB/sec 256K blocks Uncached Read 99.44 0.70 MB/sec 4K blocks Uncached Read 163.72 30.38 MB/sec 256K blocks All of the tests using 4k blocks are giving bad results. Does anyone know whether this is software or hardware related? Any tips on how to fix this. In addition, I recently installed 8gb of ram in the computer, but I made sure not to knock the SATA connector. Thanks for the help. [/QUOTE]
