That's very impressive. I wish intel would release a firmware for the 510 that would give it similar performance characteristics... With the same controller you would think they would want a more balanced drive or at least give the end user a choice of fw to use that either favors sequential or random throughput. That would be nice.
@ Old hippie, thats true, it does depeending from the programs/personal use, but for general average users the 4K is where it counts
Aren't the new drives using slower 25nm NAND ?
WOW amazing 4K for M4 drive (especially for 60GB) have not seen so good results for this model till now!
Different versions of ASSSD?Yes i noticed it, its really strange.

Yea, i was thinking the same
Yes good score
What cpu are you running, and what clock?
Absolutely.Looks better, no?
Absolutely.
But I think the RAID0 would have recuperated if you quit testing and let the drives idle.
My 4K random writes dropped to @ 60 MB/s but they recuperated.
It just takes awhile.
Same CPU as you @ stock speeds.
I don't remember but I did make a post at the Crucial forum about it.How much time do I need to allow for 'recuperation'?
That's how mine is set.Power plan - set - high performance, change advance power settings:
Hard Disk turn off - never (in order to force garbage control during idle)
Hibernate - off,
Sleep - off,
Minimum processor state -100%
I guess same goes for everyone who want better SSD performance
I found that oc my cpu @4.8ghz increased my score like 30% more, especially in 4K segment, like from 70mbs to 93 mbs write, and 28 - 33mb/s read, so keep that im mind, also in control panel power options set this.

Yea no doubt
What's that smell ? There's something "funky" here.I found that oc my cpu @4.8ghz increased my score like 30% more, especially in 4K segment, like from 70mbs to 93 mbs write, and 28 - 33mb/s read, ...
It would certainly explain why some m4s/c300s are giving way lower 4k results than others.What's that smell ? There's something "funky" here.
Overclocking an already-way-fast-enough CPU should have no measurable effect on random read (or write) SSD benchmark results.
Moral: Don't have a pissing contest on a windy day.

Thank you for confirming. I actually did believe your reported result. I wanted to see if you, or anyone else, would draw the correct (imho) conclusion:...
And what if i tell you, that i get similar results on my previous setup as well? sure for some CPU clock may not have big impact on performance, but for me on 2 different platforms (X58/LGA1155) it does for sure!
Also i must note that the comaprasion was done like this,
1, Loaded optmized defaults in BIOS, went right back into windows, and started AS-SSD benchmark.
2. Right after that i restarted, went in BIOS overclocked my cpu to 4.6ghz and instantly booted into windows.
3. So its like: same OS, same drivers, same power options in control panel on both tests, and yet the score was much higher on the second AS-SSD benchmark.
