Low ssd copy-paste speeds

[Thenerd-err]

Got 2 500gb ssds: 850 evo and 860 evo (both 2.5"). 

Pc specs: 7700k, asus z270e mobo and ddr4 16gb ram. (And 1080ti if that has to do something with it)

So i was copying my stuff from one ssd to another which and each folder was like 60-80gb. Im getting low copy-paste speeds sometimes 130 then 200 and max it went was 320 something. 

As far as i know these ssds are able to achieve 400 - 500+ copy-paste speeds. 

Can someone please help me by telling me that what i could possibly do to get those speeds?

Were the files just a single 80gb file, or a large number of individual files? Lots of individual files can transfer slower.

You can use a program called CrystalDiskMark to benchmark the speeds of your SSDs.

large amounts of small files will never go at full speeds

 

SATA3 is ~550MBps but that doesn't include protocol overhead or real world speed

i was transferring battlefield 1,4 and gta 5 to different disk.
and i used crystal disk ran 3 test and they all showed 500+ transferring speeds for both disks. (idk why i dont get those speeds in real time)

Seems about right AFAIK. Nothing wrong there. You could see if there are separate SATA controllers on your board, but not likely. Oh, and make sure ACHI is turned on in bios options.

 

"Up To" and "actual" can vary depending on work load and/or disk activity and how full it is. (Is virus scanner running, is maintenance running, is Win10 downloading updates... is a game updating in the background etc etc)

Benchmarks are different than real world. Depends of type of files, also SSD buffer when transfering very large stuff.
