New Boot Drive Write speed slow

Weric

Hello folks! So just yesterday I rebuilt my PC with a 5900x, took out my old boot drive with windows on it, and put in a new 1tb SSD and did a clean install of win 10.

 

After doing performance tests, the Read speed is good at 540, but my sequential write speed was at 83.... I'm going to run it again in case something was going on in the background during testing, but something is off. AHCI is enabled in Bios, showing AHCI controller in device manager. Not sure what is going on. My boot priority only has the 1 Drive and its showing as Windows Boot Manager(870 Evo 1tb so on and so on).

 

They're plugged in the 6g/s sata ports, and not those special Media sata ports either. Whats going on

 

Edit: Nevermind! I updated the firmware and ran another test, getting normal speeds now. Either the firmware needed to be updated, or me exiting a web browser during the test really made the SSD shit its pants lol.
