SiSoft Sandra 2012 Write Performance

For write performance, something odd is happening here. Using SATA 6Gbps port, the drive only acheived 100MB/s for write. Thunderbolt connection gave it a 161.67 MB/s write speed.

If we were to examine by the benchmark results provided by SiSoft Sandra for write access, we can see that Corsair Force 3 SSD is not far ahead at 136.37MB/s. Perhaps a firmware might be able to fix this.
