Yes.

Are you using RAPID?

Thanks for the reply. I was wondering about the Turbowrite because my benchmark results in the Magician software have been kind of disappointing. The sequential results seem fine, but the random read and write numbers aren’t anything special at all. The random write number is discouragingly low. I’ve gone to some forums/message board here on the internet and also talked to Samsung on the phone about the situation. The Samsung person suggested that I update the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver. I did that, but it didn’t really help. Of course, I’ve used the Magician software, but it doesn’t help much either. Something is wrong with my EVO setup, but nobody can figure out what’s causing the problem.

No…Turbowrite is part and parcel of the new EVO and its performance is reflected in specs.
