Slow SSD speeds...

[Shay12tg]

Hi.

 

I use my Samsung 850 Pro to hold my steam and origin libs, and it should get 500+ MB/s sequensial r/w speeds.

However, I only get 300~350 when copying files from my Ramdisk and ~400 when benchmarking.

 

Any advice?

 

My PC:

Antec P380

Asus Z170 deluxe

Intel 6700K@4.5Ghz w/ Corsair H110 + Noctua fans

32G G.Skill Ripjaws V 3Ghz

Gigabyte G1 gaming 980Ti

Corsair AX760i

Intel 750 PCI-E NVMe 400G

Samsung 850 PRO 256G

Seagate 8TB drive

Corsair RGB Gaming K70 Cherry MX Brown

Logitech G900 mouse

Windows 10 Pro

 

Thanks.

Go to performance optimization.

On an unrelated note first. Give me your NVME drive ;3

 

On a related note: You seem to have less than 10% of the drive capacity available (21GB of 239GB is 8.8%). I don't know whether it's still a thing on newer SSD's but I distinctly remember advice of keeping SSD's above that 10% free space threshold to prevent slowdowns, maybe that might be it.

Performance optimizations is unsupported on Win8/10

I don't really notice the difference bettween a good SSD and the 750  boot time is pretty much the same and unless you move big files around, it doesn't really matter for regular use.

 

I tried deleting some files... no change.
