User benchmark .com tells me my WD Black SN750 NVMe SSD is underperforming and I'm trying to figure out why.  Could it be due to my older motherboard, an Asus z97-c?

 

 

WDS500G3XHC-00SJG0 500GB

11,656 User benchmarks, average bench 246%

155GB free (System drive)

Firmware: 102000WD

SusWrite @10s intervals: 282 536 561 690 691 601 MB/s

 Performing way below expectations (0th percentile)

do not use userbenchmark. it is extremely biased and inaccurate.

it is probably your motherboard as it says that it only supports gen 2 drives and yours is gen 3.

good to know. I figured it was the mobo but wasn't exactly sure what to look at. Thanks

It’s a 10Gbps M.2 port that share bandwidth with SATA express ports.
