SSD Slower than usual

[Bomdur]

Hi yesterday i format my pc and after that my ssd is working reallyyyyy slow (I've a Corsair Force LE), before the format my ssd was working just fine.

I've try a lot of options like: optimize it, check energy options on windows, clean it, downloading drivers... But none of that worked.

Run a SMART diag against the drive using Corsair's utility. Also, you can check for firmware updates.

There was an improvement but not by a lot. (From 6.50 to 12). Firmware was up to date and i did a TRIM without any problems. Here is the smart status:

I've noticed that with some SSDs, when you format and reinstall Windows all over again, there's a period of slower performance as garbage collection is running on the drive after a TRIM. But you mentioned this took place the other day, so I would think that process completed long ago.

 

Leave the PC on for another few hours and benchmark again. If it's still slow, you might need to reach out to Corsair for an RMA (replacement).

So now i'm getting 400mb/s ... A LOT better
I will answer with all the things i did from the start just in case someone else has the same problem:

-Check for my ssd firmware updates,
-Set windows energy mode to high
-Optimize the ssd with windows and corsair app

-Reinstall every driver
-Change SATA port (even that i didn't move or touch the pc)
