[SOLVED] SSD write 300mb/s

[justme42]

I just bought samsung 860 evo 250gb,and its Reading at around 420 mb/s and writing at 300mb/s
Are these low speeds for this drive ,and if yes how to fix it?

First off, give us a FULL list of all your parts.
Make/model/size.

What is on this drive, and what tool are you using to show this reading?

Motherboard is Gigabyte B75-d3h
intel i5-3450
1050ti
8gb ddr3
The drive is 50% full with windows and 1 game installed.
The readings i got from the Samsung Magician,and when i was updating my game it also showed 300mb write speed

What specific motherboard port is the 860 installed in?

I think its connected to the SATA3 6b/s

"I think..."

It must be connected to the SATA3 0 .
Please verify exactly what port it is on.

That 0 is the only port that is theoretically capable of reasonable speed with that drive.

Yes it is on the SATA3,I had to check which one of the two is sata3,but it is on it

There are 6 SATA ports on that board.

But, if it is connected to that SATA 0, and Samsung Magician shows no defects...it would seem to be the motherboard to be the issue.
And not much you can do about that.

Is the BIOS updated to the most recent?

Yes it is the latest BIOS for my motherboard.I reinstalled the pc today and now Read speed is 559mb/s but write is still at 363 mb/s

Speeds are perfectly normal. You can't saturate the controller's eight channels at 250GB for writes, outside SLC it will be 300 MB/s at best and the cache is at its smallest (6-12GB).

Write cache enabled?
The read speed is perfectly fine.

One should not really expect the typical 560 MB/sec read speeds from an 8 year old CPU/mainboard combo...especially if it is from the SSD with the active Windows installation, which naturally, incurs overhead by virtue of it being the OS drive...
