I've had loads of help from people on here setting up my SSD-it took me ages to install firmware update I managed now, I originally started on IDE mode button now running AHCI. I've installed the Intel SSD toolbox and have run the optimiser and as you can see my benchmark test is much better. I set up Windows with a number of tweaks and it's running well.
What should I do now?
Most people seem to recommend reformatting the disc and running a HCI from the start, and copying windows across to a second hard drive and then moving back after reinstalling the SSD. Is this what people would recommend?
Here's my recent benchmark:
