SSD slower than HDD

Emil_Meld · Jan 4, 2016

I've been running this setup for a while now but I just realized my kingston v300 120gb I use for games is slower than my storage drive a regular western digital blue.

I did my test in AS SSD my kingston sdd got 172,9 in read and 88 in write. HDD got 170 in read and 168 in write. Yes ahci is enabled. I also have my os on another ssd which runs really good and scores way better

motherboard make and model? how are you connecting the SSD to the motherboard? how full is the SSD?

Emil_Meld · Jan 4, 2016

Amd. Asrock extreme 4 970. I have one game on the drive. really. Im connecting via sata 3 6gb. I also found this forum, about my problem, not sure if I believe it http://www.overclock.net/t/1380526/kingston-v300-help

Emil_Meld :

might be true. it is still under warranty? can you update the firmware?

Emil_Meld · Jan 4, 2016

I dont think its under warranty anymore, I never really realised this problem no idea why. I downloaded Kingston Toolbox and it said there isnt any new firmware, which I dont believe because according to this link there should be something released 2015, and I have not updated my ssd lately http://media.kingston.com/support/downloads/603ABBF0_RN_052015.pdf while writing this I decided to try again, this time it said it had updated itself, I tested the drive again, and it became just a little bit better like 5mb/s

Is there still a chance it might be a bit fatser than my HDD somewhere, because I know eversince I installed my game on the ssd it does load a bit faster

could be the AS SSD benchmark, too.

Emil_Meld · Jan 4, 2016

Should I test with another program? any idea which?

Haha now im confused with atto it scores waaay better, even better than kingston claims, or am I using it wrong, haha. Write: 492 mb read: 518

If that true, it actually performs well for such a cheap drive. Do you think everything is normal/alright then?

If you don't have any issue other than the synthetic test, it fine.
