What kind and size of drive is it?  How old is it?  How slow?  What makes you say it is going slower?  Is it an SSD or an HDD?  Is it making funny noises?

 

More info is required.

Hey dev_1523,

 

If you give us the brand and the model of the drive, we might be able to help you. I would suggest running a diagnostic utility to check the drive's health and see what the problem might be. I would recommend using the tool provided by your manufacturer. Also check if the drive is too fragmented or full and thus performing slower.
