Hello,
I was trying to benchmark some ssds. I have an Samsung evo 750 on which i had windows installed previuosly but now i'm using for storage. A few years ago when i had the system installed on it i ran CrystalDiskMark on it and i got something around 40MB/s on the 4K read tests. Now That i'm using it for storage and i ran the CDM benchmark again i got much higher numbers around 200-300MB/s. This has happened also with other ssds i have. I'd like to know if this difference is normal due to the system being installed on it or if the speed was reduced due to some configuration error or something else?
thanks
