So, I upgraded my OS drive from a Samsung Evo 850 (250GB) to a Samsung 970 EVO SSD 1TB. My system was very fast before, now it is sluggish and slow as if I were using an old disk drive.
Before this upgrade, my system would start up in about 20 seconds form the time I pushed the power button. Now it takes a couple of minutes. Programs load extremely slow like I was using an old disk drive. Sometimes the whole system slows down to where even moving the mouse the cursor hops across the screen like it is getting stuck and then jumps. It even takes more than a minute to shut the system off. A restart might take four to five minutes.
What could be the issue?
