There are multiple possible confounding factors. One is that you could have tag alongs running - virus scanners, backup agents, content indexers etc. I strongly recommend running Sysinternal's Process Monitor which will show file activity and point fingers. Another is that Windows monitors files with certain extensions as part of system restore. If you happened to pick one of the extensions for your database you'll find it a lot slower: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa378870.aspx There are some other tradeoffs in the NTFS implementation, such as how all directory information is stored in a single large "file" (MFT). It is also possible that the blocks of the filesystem don't align with the blocks of the SSD which will cause the SSD performance to be a lot slower.
