What Hexit said won't help with your issue at all. The things quoted disable windows functions such as hibernation and the paging file without which many programs won't run even if you have enough RAM. 

OCZ is correct, your ATTO screenshot http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=30362&d=1367845551 shows that your SSD is performing as it should be with sequential reads and writes around 500MB/s and there is nothing to worry about. AS SSD uses uncompressible data which your drive is slower at and your results are exactly what you should be getting. 

Also what Hexit said about SATA is incorrect, Your SSD achieves around 500MB/s sequential in ATTO which is equal to 4Gb/s (8 bits in a byte), which is well over SATA 2 spec, since SATA 2 is 3Gb/s burst and around 2.5Gb/s sustained. However, once again you have nothing to worry about as your SSD is running in SATA 3 mode.

ok cool thanks but how come my HDD 500g running at 7200rpm gets about the same score??

SSD's speed things up mostly due to the low Access Times which translate into Random Reads and Writes that are many times faster than HDD's... Your SSD still achieved 500MB/s sequential with compressible data, your hard drive gets close when comparing the results with uncompressible data but these are only sequential speeds and don't really affect performance that much (only when handling very large files)

You should notice straight away that the test is taking many times longer to complete on the HDD
