SSD pretty slow, do I need a new one?

[Arnoldo]

Hello, I realized the ssd in my Zenbook Ux31e ( nearly 3 Yeas old) is pretty slow.

Should I save my Data and get a new one?

I'm interested in a samsung 850 evo 250gb M.2 + adapter

You could certainly get much better performance with the newer drive. Whether or not you would notice the difference depends on your workload and how sensitive you are.

Quite a few people have reported success using SSD adapters for Zenbooks, but there is still some risk that things wouldn't fit.

My biggest concern is that the low speed is a sign, that the ssd is breaking soon.

I suppose that is possible, but the U100 is very slow SSD. Your performance doesn't look that unusual.
