Purchased a sandisk SSD 240gb today, had no intentions of making it my boot drive since I didn't have enough space for everything so just wanted to copy the important programs over to the SSD that I want to run quickly (some games, some poker programs etc). Had to use my CD rom sata cables as the inside of my pc is an absolute mess and I couldn't see spares or a bracket to attach the SSD to so its pretty much just hanging there. Used disc management to create the new volume etc. Used the hwinfo program to check and make sure I had the correct sata cables which I did, it says its sata 6gb/s which from what I gather means SATA III so no problems there. Used AS SSD Benchmark software to check the speed that my SSD was running at, it came back with terrible results when I tested. I'm not great at reading and understanding this info but from what I gather from other results mines are very bad. I've tried running fortnite to see the startup speed and it's literally the same as my HDD speed. Am I wrong to just drag and drop folders to the SSD, should I be using a program to transfer folders/programs between drives? Regardless of that though, the speed test results are clearly still bad. Any help would be much appreciated in getting this SSD to start programs up much more swiftly!
