GSkill have released the new Falcon firmware V1819. I have not flashed my drives yet, will wait a few days and see what others are finding with it. I do not know if it has Gabbage collection for Raid or not.

Hey Jerry, yeah some FM can be pretty crappy.
OCZ newest FW 1.41 has slowed down my SSD's

It looks like about a 10% hit with the new Falcon firmware according to a couple of sites.

Re: * 3x120gig OCZ SSD's in RAID-0 *

Ok, its been 6 mos of RAID-O OCZ SSD's. And what can I say, I still enjoy
these drives very much. They still run as fast as day one! Only real trouble was SATA cables
2 of the 3 ssd SATA cables went south. I replaced them with 3 new SATA cables. Reinstalled W-7 Ultimate and all is good. My first ATTO benche shows
strong numbers.......

Old like me, I guess......
Look back at post #83 on 6/28/09 when I finally got the drives dialed-in.
Compared to todays benchie, this is how well ssd's hold up. Believe me I've not been easy on these drives.
Todays benchie has stronger numbers then the benchie taken on 6/28/09.....
