SSD slow read/write speeds.... Slow boot?

[MiniMoose1211]

I bought this ssd from corsair a few years back and was wondering why I was booting so damn slow.... Any ideas? I did a CrystalDiskMark test and the reads and writes were insanely LOW compared to their tech-specs on their site.... .... I'm running a pretty good motherboard and don't think it's because I'm lacking sata3 inputs. Any idea why? I tried putting my motherboard into UEFI boot only mode and it brought me to a black screen with a read out of what was connected to my Pci/sata connectors and said something along the lines of press any key to continue something.sh I ended up hitting the clear cmos button and dealing with the slow speeds currently....... any idea what maybe causing the slow speeds? The ssd isn't THAT old and I have it correctly installed (Assuming their isn't any hidden gimmicks) I'm going to try updating my bios right now so I'll prob check this post in ~20 minutes or so.

 

 

My pc specs-

i7 4770k Stock Speeds

MSI Z87 Mpower (not the max edition) motherboard

Corsair Force 3 180GB SSD

Hitachi 3TB HDD

Gtx 7704GB OC Gigabyte

Gx 650W PSU from CoolerMaster

300r Corsair Case

16GB Corsair DDR3 ram

it cloud be dangerous it cloud be dying because most ssd's slow thierselfs down when near to dying backup your data because ssd's can go bam in an instand and data recovery is difficult

 

but it maby something different than i don't know

It was never fast, that's the thing. I know they slow down allot but still 190 isn't like the 80mb/s you'd see when it's close to being dead. I think something else is involved because i've used this ssd for a bit but never actually had Super fast boots. I'd just recently given 2 shits to download Crystal Disk mark and google what the ssd's tech specs were. I can remember up to a month or two back when it was copy/pasting around 100mb/s in windows description during large copies....

Z87 Msi Mpower Motherboard, says it in the post...

 

Just to be clear, I did go into the bios and AHCI mode was enabled already.... So I'm not running the thing on ide mode lol.

i see that all the sata ports are sata 3 6gbt's so there shouden't be a problem there or the sdd is really dying or i have no idear sorry.

Have you run the Corsair tools on it and seen what they have to report?

I've run the Corsair SSD toolbox they offer on their site. It's basically just a firmware update.... Didn't change the read/write after updated. I doubt it's near death I think it's a driver issue... I'm updating my bios drivers and crap right now to see if I can produce a different result...

[MiniMoose1211]

Still have no idea why the read/writes are so low.... I don't think it's dying because I never noticed it booting faster than minute average... Good thing my birthday is in February I'll prob get a Samsung Evo SSD from newegg I think it's like just over 3 years old so it won't be under warranty or anything D:
