Hello,

When I copy something from my 840 EVO 250GB to my WD Black 3TB my copying speed starts at like 600mb/s and drops fast to around 450mb/s and then after a few seconds to 150mb/s and it sticks there. Is this normal or is there something wrong?

This is 100% normal. Your SSD will be MUCH faster than the HDD.

That's normal due to the buffering mechanical hard drives use.
