I got an 870 EVO 1TB SATA III and hooked it up as an extra drive for games but I'm getting 284 read write speed as the max when I test that drive. My motherboard says it supports SATA 3 so I'm not sure what is wrong.


NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
© Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3450 CPU @ 3.100Hz
11.96 GB RAM
motherboard: Dell 0YJPT1 here is the link to it: http://www.findlaptopdriver.com/mainboard-dell-inc-0yjpt1-specs/
Update: I checked on HWINFO and the SSD is 6gbs running @3gbs. Is this a port or BIOS issue?
