Hi all,
I've become a little stuck. I've just attempted to fresh install windows onto a new Samsung 850 evo 250GB, and after letting everything update and install, my seq write speeds are disgusting and it seems all my write speeds are pants. Currently pulling my hair out and the rest is going grey.
So AS SSD says: Seq read 508MB/s; write 3.46 MB/s
4K read 46.46 MB/s; write 24.06 MB/s
4K-64Thrd read 246.11 MB/s; write 34.40 MB/s
Acc.time read 0.046 ms; write 0.032 ms
Currently have AHCI mode on, connected to a SATA 6Gb/s port with OS optimised for SSD performance (according to Samsung Magician)
Current thoughts:
1) Dodgy Mobo? Have a M5a97 r2.0 which some people have been having problems with apparently
2) Dodgy SSD? I bought another Samsung 850 evo a while back and thought that one was broken due to similar issues.....
3) Dodgy OS? I had problems installing windows as it kept not finding the installation files from the win 7 disc. Entirely possible it's cocked up somehow.
3) Am I a muppet and missing something obvious? (entirely possible)
As always, would be very grateful for some help on this one....
