Hello,
Just did Userbenchmark and found out that my WD black is performing way under expectations.
Speeds of my WD Black: Read 116 Write 122 Mixed 111 MB/s :(. It should be about Read 157 Write 144 and Mixed 135 MB/s.

Do you know how to fix that and have average speeds?
Thank you for your answers. :)

Never forget that the computer plays a big role in HD performance -- the drive does not exist in a vacuum. Some computers just aren't able to keep up. Were the benchmarks you quote as 'should be' performed on a system directly comparable to yours?

It is user benchmark and it's performed on similar builds. Also my PC is pretty good, so it shouldn't bottleneck my HDD by any way.
