Even if you ignore the raid controller, that was pretty slow. My vertex 2 boots up before the 4 coloured dots on the windows logo even meet up, and that's with a heap of shit installed, I imagine that's a fresh windows install you're using there.
Wow that sucks, it's your Mobo and it firmware which is stupid slow. I can see the actual windows software bootup was stupid fast. Because the Mobo 56sec is slower than my mums old IBM (not lenovo) P4 3Ghz.
I hate to say it but my Mac Pro with only two OCZ 60GB SSDs in a software RAID boot's Mac OS X Lion with Safari and Twitter in the same time it takes your Windows 7 to boot (counting from when you say "Now the controller's done, let's just see exactly how quickly Windows 7 boots". And shutdown is about the same, but no one really cares about shutdown speed.
stop trolling -_- the guy doesn't know his hardware well. don't need to get all petty about it. you know in your hearts that hdds are inferior in all aspects, don't try to make yourselves feel better by maligning others.
all ssds have an average boot of 20s. in his case, his motherboard's onboard raid controller was either degraded or simply mediocre.
how do i know? my computer takes 18s to boot from post to windows.
This is just SHIT! this will mess up your computer i mean i was searchinng in youtube for > Best computer ever HP < but then i seen your video so i was about to see it.. then when i seen that crappy booting i was likE WTf? i know its good for you coz you like it.. lol ::D i dont know why i commented :D just bored..
lol, having it in raid, and waiting forever for the raid config to load is hardly worth it, my single vertex 2 boots up in 20 secs and shuts down in 7 seconds. if you raided those SSDs just for better boot speeds then you just wasted a lot of cash.
a little to extreme... i mean i enjoy having a hefty gpu that can max games out at 1080p and i would enjoy a nice i5 or i7 or similar and thats money well spent. but to spend like $1000 on hard drives for a few secs or min faster loading is a little ridiculous to me...
@dkreventon It's not all about boot time though, the ssd's will be considerably faster at almost everything else! And take into consideration the less heat, noise etc. However, I don't believe they are worth the amount they cost.
There's always some mactards around proclaiming how superior their platform is. Their behaviour is so similar to those Scientologists, Jehovah Witness, Mormon elders, etc. you see on the street trying to convert people into their belief. They're like a buncha cultists!!
Back to topic, shutdown time is awesome but boot up time is bad. It's supposed to be from the time you press the ON button, not from the time the controller initialised.
I am using one(!) relatively cheap X-25M(!) and have almost the same performance on my AMD Quadcore PC. When you add the time for BIOS/RAID to become ready, my PC boots faster than your's... LOL! And my Kubuntu Linux on that machine is even a bit faster.
BTW: My own video here on YT was recorded from a dualcore notebook.
@p1703 dude, could you try to not be so obvious about bragging. jeeze i mean dude its hard to be my system specs but i dont go puttin other peoples equipment down. a little humility goes a long way, trust me.
@Leignheart I don't compete having better hardware than others. I only wanted to state that 4 SLC SSDs in a RAID 0 array cannot use it's capability, because controller speed and OS tasks during boot prevent the SSDs from reaching it's limits. It's like driving a car with 5000hp and you cannot get the power onto the track. It wasn't my intend to flame somebody.
The controller only gets in the day during boot time. Otherwise, two SSDs in Raid 0 will pay off after the boot, while you're executing programs, transferring files, or even browsing.
@zzangzzang1 You're obviously the douche, seeing as how you posted a retarded comment without having an knowledge of what a RAID controller is (Obviously)
although 1.03 mins is a long time it started loading windows 7 from 49 seconds so that 14 seconds to load windows 7, its only the raid setup that takes the time to load which kinda defeats the object lol but great vid nice.
Hahaha.. my old Dell i9300 laptop running XP on a 1.8 Pentium M and a single IDE drive boots way faster, about double as fast as the gear you're showing here dude... ;-)
why do you need four SSD in raid 0 in regular Desktop machine?? I dont belive when some telling "for video editing" or "games" this is to much expensive for that kind of useing. Much better build raid0 with regular hdd 7200 or velociraptor 10000rpm for the price, you get more space and almost the same speed (ok not the same speed, but really you dont need 800MB/sec even in video editing)
Too bad you are going to have to reinstall windows every few months because TRIM is NOT supported in RAID setups - still, that's great performance albeit it will be short lived...hahahahahaha
You do realize that 48 seconds of the 1:03 it took had NOTHING to do with windows at all right? So, it takes WIndows 15 seconds to boot on those specs. Coolio.
@BumpFrankie20 -- WOW, it takes a whopping 20 seconds for my single SSD to boot into Windows 7. Hmmm, no RAID and I have the benefit of TRIM support (TRIM is not supported in SSD RAID setups). NUFF SAID - this setup sucks and the guy needs a new motherboard.
You guys don't seem to understand, the RAID controller takes like 40-50secs to initialize. At 54Secs is when the OS actually starts booting! and it took 10.2 Seconds which IS fast, and when your doing things like moving files, editing large files and installing programs and starting your apps and switching around from program to program, That's where you see the huge difference, I couldn't give a shit about 50secs on initializing the RAID controller if my PC is gonna be that damn FAST!
BTW, Seeing as your a stupid faggot with no knowledge of computers ( you do own a MacBook after all)
I'll explain what's happening here for you.
: The Raid Controller (The thing that interfaces the 4 SSD drives and makes them act as one) takes a while to load up and load the raid setup. The actual startup starts when the PC gets out of the post screen @ 54Secs.
The ACTUAL startup of Win7 to fully loaded and usable is only 10SECS try that you fool!
@djlobb i am not a stupid faggot. i am actually very educated about computers, and i already kew about the raid controller. i dont get why someone would put a video with a description about the great boot time, when in fact it takes much longer than another modern computer. you cant simply count out the raid controller and say that doesn't count. the fastest boot would be with a single SSD, without additional SSDs in RAID in this situation. just because i own a mac doesnt mean i'm stupid.
@tipman2000 Sorry if I offended you, but most the time Mac users I talk to know shit all about computers. I know, It's a stereotype, but 90% of the time it's true! Regarding your comment to FloridaSurfer: I work on the hardware on both PC and Macs and trust me, the hardware in Macs shits itself aswell, Ram especially, even software crashes. BTW Why do banks and stores use Windows based IBM and Panasonic cash registers & ATM's etc? Windows is as stable as you keep it. BSOD is a diagnostic screen
@djlobb there may be a few people out there that use macs and dont know squat about computers, but you gotta remember that not every computer user is an expert and there are many MANY more PC users that probably dont know what MHz or GB mean. The fact that macs are incredibly easy to use means that the product will attract people that are computer illiterate, but that doesn't mean all of us are computer illiterate. now i didn't say macs aren't flawless, nothing is. (read next comment...)
@djlobb i have worked on mac hardware and it is a pain, of course anything will be. some of it is great and some isn't on the inside. Why do banks and stores use windows based machines? 2 reasons: 1: compatibility; because by going mac they will have to replace their entire system, and there is already a huge amount of atms and such in place. 2: tech support, because tech support would have to learn a whole new system, so sometimes many places are stuck with windows. and windows isnt stable
@FloridaSurfer18 ha! i bought a macbook to tri-boot osx, linux, and windows! you can have your pc and all the problems that come with it, but i can always depend on mac to just work. there is nothing to dispute. why do you think so many professionals that depend on their computers for their living go with mac? why do you think people that work in the white house use macs? because they're so damn superior! i could say much more but i'm running out of space so cya!
@PawlOwl of course i know they run on the same hardware. the advantage is i can boot windows and get all the advantage of being mainstream, but my primary OS is OS X for its functionality and features and security. you can put up the argument that you can hackintosh a pc to run OS X, but there is so much risk that it probably won't work, and if it does many features won't work. i also love the styling of mac computers.
meh linux mint starts up faster for me (and i have regular harddrive, 2gb ddr2 ram and a phenom II x4). though that is an impressive time for windows 7, especially shutdown which actually seems faster than linux mint =0
Yeah i know that, i have 2 OCZ Vertex 2 120 GB in RAID 0, so it takes about 30 seconds to load the motherboard and the RAID initialization and nearly 25 seconds to boot the Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit version that i have.
@SutkasFan i get it taking a minute to boot but 25 seconds to boot windows 7 with raid 0 ssd's!? 5400 rpm hard drive would probably do it in less time. something is fishy here..
the POST of the bios and RAID controllers seriously need to be improved. With the advent of SSD + RAID, is there really anything else preventing the "instant on" computer?
It would boot fast if you get a pci raid controler. That one on your mothboard is very slow at anayising the drives. That should cut down bootyime in half...
The controller analizing takes too much time, doesn't it? my single WD Caviar Blue 640GB boots up Windows7 Ultimate x64 in around 45~60 secs (incl. BIOS). But for Sure running Programmes is much faster if you have SSD ;) I will buy Intel Postville 80GB within the next few weeks...
Is it my fault if u dont understand the irony and make stupid comment and call me noob ?! OMg kid go and make your homework. We have enough primates like Bush, McCain and Palin!
@FreeYourMind911 You want me to make my homework? I'm pretty sure my professors do that. Why don't you go DO your homework and learn a thing or two about the English language.
7 seconds? that's pretty impressive .. sort of, I just saw another video of a guy with 2 velociraptors do the same in about 7-8 secs...
SSD's to me are just not worth it, they're WAY too expensive and hold way too little data capacity. Still waiting till the prices go down and the gigs go up.
lol...i think my cheap $800 computer with a reg 7200 HDD can boot faster then a min, ill test....probably not though. IMpressive set up if only the controller didn't take so damn long!
Windows XP fresh install was almost as fast, install a few applications and kiss that speed goodbye lol. Still i do like Windows 7, about time MS got their act together.
LoL my windows7 was like that too on a clean install and I have two 7200rpm sata in ide mode. Try it after gaming and using the net and loading up steam ts and logitech software and quicktime and iTunes and Kodak software. see how fast it is then!! and i dont have to keep formatting my drives to retain performance either! ssd fail for the price.
@Danniboy344 Yeah last longer and I dont loose stuff if the raid fell over. You need more than two drives in raid to retain data in event of drive failure. Plus I am never in that much of a hurry to boot usually if your machine is slow you make a coffee or just leave it in sleep mode. only use the box for gaming and youtube occaisional 3d MAX and photoshop, maybe the odd blueray movie.
A slight delay...

Why do banks and stores use windows based machines? 2 reasons: 1: compatibility; because by going mac they will have to replace their entire system, and there is already a huge amount of atms and such in place. 2: tech support, because tech support would have to learn a whole new system, so sometimes many places are stuck with windows. and windows isnt stable

@tipman2000 Yeah dont ever compare a Mac OSX pc to anything.... ever. If you *Knew* ANYTHING about computers #1 you wouldnt have bought a mac book

@FloridaSurfer18 ha! i bought a macbook to tri-boot osx, linux, and windows! you can have your pc and all the problems that come with it, but i can always depend on mac to just work. there is nothing to dispute. why do you think so many professionals that depend on their computers for their living go with mac? why do you think people that work in the white house use macs? because they're so damn superior! i could say much more but i'm running out of space so cya!

@tipman2000 You do know that PC's and Apple computers use the same hardware? Knowing that; what is the advantage having Windows on a Apple computer?
PawlOwl 1 year ago
@PawlOwl of course i know they run on the same hardware. the advantage is i can boot windows and get all the advantage of being mainstream, but my primary OS is OS X for its functionality and features and security. you can put up the argument that you can hackintosh a pc to run OS X, but there is so much risk that it probably won't work, and if it does many features won't work. i also love the styling of mac computers.

meh linux mint starts up faster for me (and i have regular harddrive, 2gb ddr2 ram and a phenom II x4). though that is an impressive time for windows 7, especially shutdown which actually seems faster than linux mint =0

@SutkasFan boot time depends on alot of things though... motherboard, raid initialization ect...
danthemanzizzle 10 months ago
@danthemanzizzle
Yeah i know that, i have 2 OCZ Vertex 2 120 GB in RAID 0, so it takes about 30 seconds to load the motherboard and the RAID initialization and nearly 25 seconds to boot the Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit version that i have.
SutkasFan 10 months ago
@SutkasFan i get it taking a minute to boot but 25 seconds to boot windows 7 with raid 0 ssd's!? 5400 rpm hard drive would probably do it in less time. something is fishy here..
danthemanzizzle 10 months ago
@danthemanzizzle
Probably cause they're connected 5 months ago, and they're connected through software RAID not through hardware RAID.
SutkasFan 9 months ago
w/out raid would be roughly 11 secs?

It would boot fast if you get a pci raid controler. That one on your mothboard is very slow at anayising the drives. That should cut down bootyime in half...

The controller analizing takes too much time, doesn't it? my single WD Caviar Blue 640GB boots up Windows7 Ultimate x64 in around 45~60 secs (incl. BIOS). But for Sure running Programmes is much faster if you have SSD ;) I will buy Intel Postville 80GB within the next few weeks...

The real time is 7s - 9s, the problem is the bios + RAID controller, is too slow to be ready and make the boot get late.
anyways, my single HDD boot in about 20" in a clean installation...

7 seconds? that's pretty impressive .. sort of, I just saw another video of a guy with 2 velociraptors do the same in about 7-8 secs...
SSD's to me are just not worth it, they're WAY too expensive and hold way too little data capacity. Still waiting till the prices go down and the gigs go up.

LoL my windows7 was like that too on a clean install and I have two 7200rpm sata in ide mode.

You don't have to reformat an SSD to retain performance... TRIM or GC will keep the drive running fine.

Danniboy344 1 year ago
@Danniboy344 Yeah last longer and I dont loose stuff if the raid fell over. You need more than two drives in raid to retain data in event of drive failure. Plus I am never in that much of a hurry to boot usually if your machine is slow you make a coffee or just leave it in sleep mode. only use the box for gaming and youtube occaisional 3d MAX and photoshop, maybe the odd blueray movie.
