I have AData HD710 USB3.0 External Hard Drive (Toshiba 2.5" HD inside)
ASUS USB3.0 TurboBoost enabled (BOT controller) (no difference between ON and OFF)
Partition type: GPT (was mbr)
Physical sec: 4096B
logical sec: 512B
Benchmark History (USB3.0):
500MB - 1GB Seq. R/W
0% space used
Read: 91MB/s
Write: 90MB/s
70% used
Read: 91MB/s
Write: 90MB/s
recent Benchmark results:
80% used;
Read: 45 - 65MB/s
Write: 75MB/s
Story:
then today, I gone to my Friend's house and transfer a bunch of file in his Laptop via USB3.0.
At first, it was @90MBps via Windows default copy window. and Decided to install Teracopy cuz of the number of files to be transfer, then I Noticed that while copying large files with teracopy, it was only around 60-45MBps. we expected faster.
and yeah, this will is the first time we tried USB3.0 speed
back at home, I tried to benchmark it again and I got terrible results:
Read: 45 - 65MB/s
Write: 75MB/s
monitored with Task manager > Performance, the disk Read speed goes up and down then stay at 60-70MB/s, then go up and down again (30MB/s - 80MB/s)
is it normal for a Mechanical Drive to slow down once the disk is almost full?
probably Cable problem?
Bad files?
Bad USB3.0 Cable from manufacturer?
I have: Defragmented, chkdsk-ed, Ccleaned, before and after the benchmarks.
Asus Turbo boost on or off, same results. same cable used.
Can't test a different cable for now, but i tried this old Unreliable usb3 cable.
before:R=6MB/s W=75MB/s now: R=65MB/s W=75MB/s.
I need your Ideas, suggestions, and answers.
Thanks in Advance.
