Hi there,
for the past week or so I have had various performance problems with my computer and have looked everywhere for a fix.
Today, I've run a performance benchmark for my SSD in the Samsung Magician software and noticed my sequential write speed was only 67 MB/s (while my read is around 500 MB/s).
(Random read-write benchmarks at ~34k IOPS read and ~20k IOPS write).
I bought the SSD around 1.5 years ago and have had performance problems multiple times, mostly solving them short-term by plugging into a different SATA3 port on my motherboard every time.
So my first instinct was to check if the drive was plugged into a SATA3 port correctly, so I've switched SATA cables and verified that it's plugged into a SATA3 port.
The SSD is running the newest firmware version.
Currently, there are about 500 GB of free space on the drive and there is a dual boot version of Kali Linux installed on the same SSD.
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks
Paul
