Title: SSD and BIOS Settings
Post by: Larkina on September 22, 2011, 09:04:35 am

I would like to know if setting the Perfomance Enchance to Extreme in my BIOS will hurt my ssd? I'm using the GAEP45-UD3P v1.6 motherboard. Having it set this way really made things faster. I'm not overclocking. Just using one 64gb ssd for the OS and one HD for apps. I have a Intel Q6600 2.4GHz processor and I'm trying to set everything to stock settings and pull the most performance out of my ssd. Also running Windows 732bit OS.

  Larkina .... good question really!

  Performance Enhance does takes a lot of configurable setting out of your hands and to my understanding is applicable mainly to memory.... as well as write speed.....whether it makes voltage changes to your SSD..... I don't know .... but I think not ....I think the write/read speeds improvements are memory related .... some people have the best performance with standard .... others say .... standard=BSOD ... I think it's individual Main-board+CPU variably dependent .... it may be a matter of individual experimentation

  Read this article may give you some insight into your question..... http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/mainboards/display/ga-p35-ds3l_7.html
