Let me know how this works out, please.

I know it's been a while, but:

 

The Syba card you recommended is giving me speeds on my SSD over 500 MB/Megabits? per second. That's working out really well.

 

my 4 port USB (Inateck) card is also working out nicely. The only question is: is my SSD big enough? (currently 500GB) It also makes me feel good to know that I did this all by myself:

 

Backup (C:) drive

Remove (C:) drive

Install SSD

Restore to SSD

Install new Internal HD

Install Inateck SATA 3 PCI card

Install Syba 4 port USB 3.0 PCI card

 

The computer now starts up in something like 10 seconds, vs. 2 minutes. That's because of the SATA3 card. And finally, my first backup using USB2.0 interface, took 10 hours. but then again, I had some 500GB uncompressed to backup. Now, 400GB including validation of the backup, 18  minutes.

Thanks for reporting back with the results.  Great news!!  I am glad this worked out!! 

On the size of the SSD - that is something to consider.  500 GB is plenty big for the majority of users.  Use the other hard drive for data storage to relieve the SSD burden.

Yeah, I'm storing all my compressed files, there, rather than on "C" Hopefully 500GB will be enough, with the exception of a few airplanes I want to get (I'm a Sim Pilot,) well, think I am 🙂 That not withstanding, I'm at 120GB with 330GB some odd free.

 

What's great is, I can transfer my SSD to my new computer, and my 4 port USB3.0 card. I presuming the mobo that I wind up buying will have SATA3 ports, so the Sybex card won't be necessary. I'm 3 years out from that scenario so I'll see.

 

Thanks for everything, I know it was a tough slog...

Здравствуйте. У меня HP Z 420. Купил  для него SSD OCZ RevoDrive3 PCI-E 2geh x4. Долго мучался с установкой на него  OC Windows 10. Установил, но теперь не устраивает его скорость. Она меньше заявленной. Подскажите, предполагаю что установил не те драйвера. На оф.сайте почемуто нет драйвера именно для этой модели. Или влияют настройки  BIOS. Есть ли те у кого встречались подобные проблемы. Итрересует любая информация по этому вопросу. Спасибо
