Steam slow disk usage

IsmetGS

When im donwloading a small update or game on steam, around 1-5GBs, the download get done very fast thanks to 200mbps internet, although my disk has a tough time keeping up with it, the downloading of the files gets done well before the disk is able to actually write it down, so i have to wait quite a long time to wait for the disk to actually get done with the download. How can i fix this?

 

Hope that made sense

 

(the speeds im getting with my disk max out at around 45Mb/s)
