Good runs guys:toast:

@ KHOUJ and HalfAHertz you guys just gotta run that script and I'll put your reboot times up.

@ MoonPig Good stuff man that WD Black is Quick.

:( my BIOS loading and RAID matrix controls takes most of that time (before i even get to OS loading)...i hate this stoopid motherboard :shadedshu

I'm praying win7 will get me better times...

(human_error | 88 secs | 2x ocz vertex 32gb ssd raid 0 | vista 64 ultimate sp2 )

Dude I know you can do some Bios tweaks or something to get that time down.

Also I know there has to be some TPU Rigs out there rebooting in less than 50seconds, post up your results.

Wow... that Raid controller takes forever...

Is onboard Raid as long to load?

I hope to see some users with SSD drives booting times:eek: Ived heard some good things about SSD`s, they said its a hell of a lot faster than 10,000 rpm drives in RAID 0 :eek: I wonder how many seconds will it be to boot, im guessing 10 seconds? :confused:

ok i clocked 73 secs on the boot with that, no programs goin... seems slow for an ssd... i did every tweak i could find and still 73 secs, i thought it'd be faster then this.. i never really payed attention to the boot speeds till now with my ssd... idk maybe it's just me.. the access time is what makes me happy, 0.02 or something like that, the average read across the whole drive is 125 with a burst of 225... is there something about the nforce 780a chipset as far as drivers or whatnot i need tow ork with?
