So i've decided to test my SSD, 850 EVO 250gb SATA3, and what I am getting is lower, not constant read speeds. Average read speed is 315MB/s. I did multiple test, dropped down to 300, highest was about 340.

What could be the reason? I've tried with RAPID on and off and it's always the same.

I am using Windows 10 Pro 64bit, high performance power plan, on a laptop Asus K55VM, i7-3610QM, SSD is connected via SATA 3.

Are these stats normal?
