Subject: SM951 AHCI 512GB performance in Win7

Thanks parsec for your response. Lots of useful information.
My Server 2012 R2 is running as a HyperV host. The guest SQL and MIM VMs were not running at the time.
Yes I am absolutely certain I have the AHCI version, not NVME as at the time I placed the order the NVME SM951 was not on the storage compatibility list for my X99 WS board.
It's a great SSD though and installing Windows 7 / 2012 R2 was lightening quick. Boot from end of BIOS post is 4 seconds to log on screen.
