Ery Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 HiDoes anyone have an idea why my SSD is only giving my MSI GX660 around 200-300MBps read/write when advertised at 500+-?Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Zumbrunnen Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It seems that your MSI GX660 with the Intel PM55 chipset supports only SATA II, while Samsung 840 Pro is a SATA III SSD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ery Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 I see I just checked HWiNFO64 and under SSD it says "Drive Controller: Serial ATA 6Gb/s @ 3Gb/s" so it is definitely getting slowed down.Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm at about 1000 mb/s read/write using RAPID mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
