Issue with my M.2 SSD Disk

TheMurdom

Hello, I had some issues with my computer that led me to examine my hardware with various software tools to know what exactly was happening. My lap (MSI Stealth 15M A11UEKV) is having some kind of lag just when an application is upgrading (opening links very slowly in my navigators, opening apps very slowly, charging tab or visualizations very slowly, etc) I was thinking that it had to be the proccesor but it even don't reach the 70% in the worst case, I suspected that the disk (which reach 100% in that situation) was presenting some problems, so I inmediately used some software tools for analyze my disk and those results makes me wonder if it could be damaged. I'll show you some results with Crystal Disk tool and my disk information, so my question is, are they normal stats for a Kingston disk? is this some kind of low profile disk? perhaps its cluster could be damaged? What do you guys think about it?

PD: I've compared those results with the Samsung Evo 980 and are very poor results.

Those speeds seem fine. The writes are low, but not out of the norm assuming that is a DRAM-less SSD (those numbers make me think it must be). 
 

Id bet it’s a software issue, and that will be pretty difficult to fix outside of a reformat. But maybe someone else will chime in with better info.

Some desktop motherboards will cut PCIe speeds when lanes must be shared with another device. Is that a possibility with laptops, also?

I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below ***

Due to the above, I've likely revised posts <30 min old, and do not think as you do.
