[SOLVED] Is my GTA V and Saints Row 3 pop in on ps4 cause by slow SSD speeds?

So basically I got an SSD for my ps4. It was a SATA III SSD and the advertised read speed was 520 MB/s. Now I knew ahead of time that the PS4 is SATA II. So I saw someone test this same SSD in a Mac book pro which is also SATA II and they got about 240 MB/s. I also noticed that it’s DRAM-less. So everyone I asked said that a 240 MB/s DRAM-less SSD would still be faster than the stock 100 MB/s HDD. I’ve been noticing a lot of pop in and I’m wondering if maybe the SSD is getting really slow speeds due to the lack of DRAM. I don’t know if the pop in was always there and that my mind is just playing tricks on me or if it’s actually caused by this.

No matter what cheap, bad build, crappy SSD you get is till 5 times better then the HDD even on SATA II. This issue is not from your SSD.
