Hi I just put a Toshiba P300 3TB internal drive into my PC. It's a secondary drive, I have my OS on my main SSD which has about 45GB free space so should be fine.

Edit: Checked my power settings and they were on power saving so I guess this limited my CPU? Whoops. By sheer coincidence I had just been playing with the sleep settings the same day I put in the drive and accidentally selected power saving without realising. At least I realised eventually! How do I delete my thread?..
