Hi. I just recently installed a Crucial MX500 500GB SSD.
Tested it with crystaldiskmark and got worse results than my 10 year old Vertex 4 except 2 first writes.
Why is that? Broken? All software shows good health. It has the latest firmware.
Tried different cables for both psu and SATA. Nothing helps.
All tests I've seen on MX500 got way better scores.
My rig:
Cpu: AMD FX-9590
Motherboard: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3
Memory: 16GB DDR3
PSU: Corsair HX 750
Pics on my tests and a random benchmark on MX500 to show anticipated score.
