Sabrent rocket 1TB is very slow ?

Go to solution Solved by Lurick,

Size of the files, source of the files, and other factors all play a role.

Moving from a HDD to an SSD will only go as fast as the HDD can seek and send files. Additionally, if you have a lot of small files that will further slow things down as the HDD has to seek and find the information which might not always be grouped up.

So i put my new Sabrent rocket 1tb nvme ssd in my current rig ryzen 1600 + b350 f strix till my new ryzen 3700x and x570 taichi comes in.
Thing is it is SLOW. When i run AS SSD check tool, it gives up to 2600 mb/s sequential read/write but when i move some games around from my HDD to the second partition of the SSD it moves at a rate of like 50 mb/s.

People who use this drive say its blazing fast, so i guess i have an issue ?

If the files are large this is normal. QLC SSDs are much slower than even a 5400RPM hard drive when working with large files

The drive is TLC not QLC

Small non-sequential files cause slow downs, not large files.
