I purchased an Intel 330SSD 240GB for my Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD4h motherboard. I also installed 16 GB of Ballistix DDR3 1600 RAM. When I started getting errors, I ran a diagnostic scan on the SSD Toolbox and it reported "Data Mismatch Detected" in my SSD. After trying to troubleshoot the problem, I discovered that everything runs fine as long as I install no more than 8 GB of RAM. It doesn't matter which RAM sticks I use or in which slot I install them. If I install more than 8 GB of RAM, I start getting errors and a "Data Mismatch" result on the diagnostic test. I ran a memory test for eight hours on all 16 GB of RAM while installed in the Gigabyte motherboard and it reported no errors in the RAM. At Gigabyte's suggestion, I upgraded the BIOS on my motherboard, but that didn't help. Finally, assuming that I had a bad SSD, I purchased and installed another new Intel SSD, but the result was the same. With 8 GB of RAM installed, everything works fine, but when I go to more RAM, both SSD's start having problems and give me a "Data Mismatch." Any suggestions? Thanks.
