Best bet is to image your OS (do not image bit for bit)

Do a secure erase and then image your OS back to it.. performance should be good to go after that.

The only difference I have seen in specs between the various SF1200 drives is in the 4K some have improved firmware for 40K or even 50K IOPS standard I beleive was down around 15-20K

I did one when I got it, and just did one now to check up on it, and its running like shit. Any thing that would cause that to happen? I dont want to keep having to go through this every couple months.

I would try just doing it once, and for testing used ATTO at 1x100MB not default 5x1000

Just a QnD test to ensure performance is there.

Disable indexing, system restore, under write debugging informatino uncheck overwrite any existing file.

Static Pagefile. And it does not hurt to keep your trash can empty either.
There is a list for SSDtweaks around somewhere. Some say it is not necessary, I see no harm in controlling how often the OS needs to write to the SSD.

Ive already done all of those. I have my pagefile set to my WD640, superfetch/prefetch, and inexing disabled, write caching enabled.
