7.4 seems extremely good to me. I think once you're over 7.0, you're
doing pretty well. Now, if your original boot hard drive was installed
from scratch using Windows 7 or Vista, then chances are likely that the
partition was already aligned to the 1024KB boundary, which is also the
proper alignment for SSD's too.
If you follow this article, then it shows at end how to check for the
current alignment of the partition. Ignore the parts about how to create
an aligned partition and just skip to the section where it tells you how
to check the alignment.
