Hey everyone,

I just purchased this ssd drive and moved Steam and a few games over to it. When I play a game (NBA 2K13 for instance), it is so slow and jittery to the point that I cannot even start a game. Is this drive acceptable for running games?

Thanks,

Tom

Well moving a game to an SSD is not gonna improve gameplay like FPS. Only the loading times will be faster. When you start the game and in game loading screens will be faster.
Also might I add that if the SSD drive is nearly full then its is gonna get slower . I suggest you keep a free space of 30-40% in it.

Edit: For some reason the "please disregard" post wasn't on my screen untill I refreshed.

Thanks for the information nonetheless! I will definitely be keeping the extra space on the SSD. Also, the issue was user error. I do appreciate the help, though!
