SSD Stutter / Freeze Problems?
I love the Intel X25-M SSD, but recently I’ve been having problems with applications stuttering, freezing, locking up, and not responding to input. Mouse cursors will hang, application don’t respond–essentially nothing works. I tried updating to the latest drivers, etc, but no luck. For informational purposes, here’s my system info:
OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600
System Model D975XBX_
Processor x86 Family 6 Model 15 Stepping 11 GenuineIntel ~2430 Mhz
BIOS Version/Date Intel Corp. BX97510J.86A.1487.2007.0902.1724, 9/2/2007
Total Physical Memory 4,096.00 MB
Page File C:\pagefile.sys
I/O Port 0×000003C0-0×000003DF NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS 512
Model INTEL SSDSA2MH080G1GC
I think I’ve found two things that helped:
- Not running Mozy Backup
- Turning off virtual memory page files on non-SSD drives
- Move Google Chrome’s profile to a hard disk
If anyone has other tips on getting rid of SSD stutters, let me know.
