Intel SSD 330i 240G in Windows 8 startup slow how to resolve

I updated my old ThinkPad t410i laptop six months ago and purchased the Intel SSD 330i 240G in the Amazon sea in the United States. PS: The purchase price of USD 129.99, now the latest 335i 240G almost to USD 200, SSD true value. )

Recently found in the Windows 8 64bit operating system, the password need to wait until 1-2 minutes to enter the system, long wait for Microsoft's loading, sleep wake up after the system has been a long time no response .... Does not fully reflect the advantages of SSDs. Reinstalling the operating system also does not solve the problem, after looking at a lot of information on the wall, found the following solutions.

Note: This method is only for Intel SSD and is not a substitute for all branded SSD products.

1 confirm that the BIOS is set to AHCI for SATA

2 Update the firmware version of Intel SSD

3 If you are using Intel SSD, be sure not to install the hard drive of the official Lenovo website.

4 Reinstall the Windows 8 operating system

5 after installing the operating system, please install the Intel SSD Toolbox

6 Running Intel SSD Optimizer

Personally, the driver on the lenovo.com and Intel SSD have compatibility issues, after all, t410i is 3 years ago.

Also, Windows 8 's own driver has poor support for Intel SSD, causing the problem to be resolved after a general user reload the system.

After a few steps, the Intel SSD boot will become very fast.

PS: I suspect Intel 330i firmware may also have problems, now 330i firmware version number is 330i. And the latest 335i firmware has been to 335u.

It seems that the elimination of 330i is the general trend. Amazon 330i in the United States has been fully off the shelves.
