I recently purchased an Intel 600p 256gb M.2 SSD and have been getting way worse performance than I expected. I finally realized just how bad it was when I was moving GTA V from my HDD steam library to the one on my new SSD. While the files were transferring I noticed the write speed at ~400 MB/s (which is expected) and within 15 seconds, it was spiking between 12 MB/s and 100 MB/s which is definitely not what I expect from it. While this transfer was happening I opened HWMonitor (noticed slow system response in general) and had temperatures around 75 C (I am not too familiar w/ safe SSD temperatures but this does seem very high to me). This is not the only time I notice it tho, the boot times are (according to task manager) about 14 seconds, while when windows was installed on my Kingston 120 GB V300, they were 11! If anyone could assist me with identifying the issue it would be greatly appreciated. If it helps I took snips of certain windows that might help:

UPDATE: oops, I wrote from my HDD to my SSD which is correct, but I had already moved the files from the HDD to the SSD and were copying them into a 'mods' folder that was also on my SSD. So the speeds reflect SSD to SSD (same drive) performance. And CrystalDiskMark scores don't seem as bad - > https://postimg.org/image/wnhtn9lar/
