My 240 GB HyperX Fury SSD only gets 450mb/s read, and 240mb/s write in crystaldiskmark.Its advertised at 500mb/s read and write, what can be the issue?

On the website it says "240GB — 470MB/s Read and 220MB/s Write" in the specifications. I don't think it's underperforming

Specs: CPU: AMD FX 6300 Motherboard: Gigabyte 970A DS3P RAM: HyperX Fury 16GB 1866MHz GPU: MSI R9 270 OC edition Case: Sharkoon VS3-S SSD: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB HDD: 1TB Caviar Blue PSU: Corsair CX500W

I see that wow...But then again, what is the 500mb/s then??

Couldn't tell you, it's possibly sequential read/write or the controller max though :/

 

EDIT: probably the controller speeds

You're one of the very many people that got fooled by sandforce compressible performance.

They advertise compressible performance (eg, highly compressible files) because it compresses data on the fly. Thats why every sandforce drive has 550/500 speeds, but once you start pushing some actual data, these speeds drop.

 

So yeah, this is normal.
