I've been running a 500 gig SSD 850 Pro since they came out. On a P7P55D motherboard on Windows 7.
Speeds were as expected, just below 300 MB/s since I didn't have SATA 6.
I just installed a StarTech SATA 6 Gbps PCI Express SATA card, expecting to get an almost two-fold bump in speed. I watched its drivers installed when I rebooted. (And rebooted again like Windows told me to do.)
Samsung Magician and CDM show the speed is now slower than it was before I "upgraded" to the StarTech card.
It's now Sequential 200 Read, 131 Write. Formerly, both were at about 280.
Magician Sata Interface panels shows "SATA 6Gb/s(SATA 3)".
I used CTRL m at boot time to view the StarTech setup, but didn't understand any of the parameters.
I'm basically an "appliance operator" -- I don't really understand WTF I'm doing.
Any suggestions on how to get the SSD up closer to the 600 I'm expecting?
TIA
