I ran the Samsung Magician tests (10 times because I still can't believe this is accurate) and it is the same each time....

I was in disbelief too when I first turned on rapid mode, that's what rapid mode does, but it's very short (the time it stays at that speed) samsung magician benchmark kind of exaggerates it.

My speeds are still slow, the random read and write. Even with rapid mode.

That makes me feel better. :-) I have witnessed drives running slow before they died.....but never going off the charts fast....I never ran the performance tests when I installed the drive....it was fast and that was all that mattered to me.

I have used it for a year....just never cared to look at the performance. I have been reading the forums and a lot of people have been complaining about the performance of the 840 EVO SSDs. There is supposedly a firmware update coming out on 10/15/2014 to fix it (Samsung has verified this on their website). So I tested it....

I hope mine gets fixed with the firmware, mine is definitely not running up to speed.

I get 300 read/write without rapid, and like 30k random read/write.

If its 120 or less GB it maybe slower. Because of the lower cache. Thats why I decided to get the 250 GB Samsung instead of the 120
