    Post your SSD benchmarks using Blackmagic Disk Speed Test

    Seagate 600 240GB If you have slow write speeds, it might be due to using > 75% of your drive's capacity. SSDs tend to slow down when there's insufficient free space.

    [SUCCESS 10.9.2] Haswell Gigabyte GA-H81M-HD3 + Core i3-4330 HD4600 Graphics

    Not sure why, but after enabling 3rd Party SATA per your suggestion, my build would not boot at all. I had to remove a memory stick and boot into safe mode to remove the installed 3rd Party SATA kext to resolve the issue.

    [SUCCESS 10.9.2] Haswell Gigabyte GA-H81M-HD3 + Core i3-4330 HD4600 Graphics

    I just purchased and set up the same motherboard and CPU and it runs like a charm for the past day. (Gigabyte GA-H81M-HD3 + Core i3-4330) At first I had lots of the 0xdeadbeef memory allocation errors until I realized I was using the older Chimera 2.1. Once I installed the newer Chimera...

    Hackintosh sudden shut down -- black screen with fans on!

    SSD Drive performing slower than usual.

    I'm also supposed to be getting 500MB/sec sequential read/write but I'm only getting 250MB/sec read, 90MB/sec write (256K blocks) I wish I had your numbers! I'm wondering if it's my drive or the motherboard or the OS.

    GA-Z68X - wake from sleep-USB Issues!

    I have a GA-Z68M-D2H and I have sleep issues as well. Wake seems to cause a lag of several seconds ~10 before USB mouse/keyboard become functional. Also, external USB drives become disconnected (ejected improperly) Hopefully there's a solution! But for now, I have sleep disabled since it is...
