Question Samsung 970 Pro preforming lower that expected

[Gaeilge]

Title says most of it all. Have run a couple tests, and in most of them my Samsung 970 Pro is running at the lower end of the Spectrum.
I unfortuantly forgot to take a picture of my Userbenchmark, but have attached a picture of my CrystalDisk score.

(Sorry, it wouldn't let me insert it)

Things I have tried is running CrystalDisk to give you guys a score.
Reinstalling Samsung M.2 Driver
And finally, installing Samsung Magician to see if that would work

Thanks for any help.

What about that result seems abnormal?

It is well within the range of 'normal'.
And as it is the C drive with the OS, that can have an impact.

I'm not really an expert with SSD's haha, I don't really know the normal

I do know that when I ran a UserBenchMark for it, it said that i was in the bottom 10% of everyone with a Samsung 970 Pro for performance.

And the other part of that user benchmark might say "96% Outstanding!"

The thing about 'the bottom 10%' might be as simple as...
All tested drives are running between 95% and 105% of expected stock.
A drive running at 96% of absolute perfect would be good, right?
But that 96% is in the bottom 10% of that range of 95% - 105%.

You see where the problem is?
Not the drive, but how they report it.

Ahhhh, that makes 100% sense. I really appreciate the replies here.
Where would I be able to see the normal Read / Writes as in the results I had on CrystalDisk?

IMHO, userbenchmark is a badly flawed tool. Very misleading.
Don't pay too much attention to it.

10/4 on Userbenchmark
How about my CrystalDisk score, that was up to par then yea?

Yes, that looked absolutely normal.
