Extremely disappointing SSD speeds

[DrMechxico]

I just bought an OCZ AGILITY 3.

I saw a guy on youtube get around 500 M/B write and read speeds.

I am getting 71.8 MB/s Write and 191.1 MB/s read.

It is connected to the White port on my z68ap-d3.
I installed trim enabler. And I amstill getting these horrible speeds.

I take it you mean the 6GB/s Sata port?
Are you using a Sata3 cable with it?

I bought a SATA 3 cable and connected it to the 6GB/s Sata port.

here are my results from XBench

247.64 MB/sec [256K blocks] READ

119.13 MB/sec [256K blocks] WRITE

 

[westwaerts]

170 MB write
347 MB read
here
and with file system cache enabled i get 3483 and 6528 MB/sec

Dude I am getting the same thing as you. Did you ever fix it ?

I just found out there's no difference between Sata 1, 2 or 3 cables:
