Intel AHCI drivers

I read online that on the Intel website there are better AHCI drivers then what windows 7 offers. The drivers from intel have been said to increase performance with SSD. Does anyone know what im talking about, and have tried them?

So did your performance increase?
 
So did your performance increase?

idk if its the placebo effect, but everything seems snappier. I dont have ATTO so i can't check

When i finished installing the driver and restarted Windows was installing something and told me to restart again. It involved the drives. I have no idea.
 
i actually just ran a Windows Index assessment and hard Drive rating use to me 7.5(before getting these drivers) now its 7.6
