The preload depends on the spring fitted, but as a rule the Ohlins shock is a much higher quality bit of kit and it's adjustment range is far greater than the Sachs / Showa shocks fitted to the other bikes.
It may be that your shock is just tired out & needs a service... how many miles has the bike done?
My Showa on my ST2 bit the dust at about 14K miles ( in the South of France! mind you, it still handled better than the Jap bikes I was with even when the shock was shot! )
