[SOLVED] Are these SSD speeds normal for SATA 2?

[hunter1801a]

Just set up a new SSD (upgraded from HDD) and ran CrystalDiskMark benchmarks. Are these speeds normal for my situation? Since my SATA ports are limited to 3Gb/s, I am expecting slower speeds, but don't know if these specific speeds are what I should be getting, or if I'm even slower than I should be.

SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 1TB

• HD Interface: SATA 6 GB/s
• Claimed Read/Write speeds of 550/520

Mobo: GA-EX58-UD5
-Limited to SATA 2 @ 3 Gb/s

For a platform of that age, I'd say that you're about right.
