What is your AS SSD Benchmark score?

Thanks again guys.

I thought it was not necessary to Defrag an SSD, but will give it a try anyway.
@EarthDog appreciate the link. Will give that a shot later tonight and see what happens.

Cheers

@cucker tarlson I used the link that @EarthDog provided in post #267 and disabled the patches and reran the test.

@EarthDog I took a quick look at the "Defrag" option, but said the drives were 0% fragmented, so as I suspected you don't need to defrag a SSD. I did however run the optimization and it went through a series of "passes" and while I did not see anything it obviously was doing something.

Anyway back to the original question, attached below was the scan with the patches turned off... some improvement from the original posted, but not as good as the original.

The one from a couple days ago.

Any insights would be appreciated. Also is what I am looking at really that big of a difference? To me it is just some numbers and obviously 575 is "lower" than 866, but what does that really mean? I am not a gamer or anything, but notice that the performance difference when I am having multiple screens open and the database processing does not seem to be the same as it used to be.

When I first got the machine I would open up a MS product as an example and it would just be there, now I actually see the MS logo for several seconds (maybe 10 seconds) while the program launches, so clearly there is a performance issue, could be those patches?

I am not having any system issues such a freezing or crashing... just seems sluggish.

Thanks again.

Cheers
John

You are correct but defrag will allow you a no nonsense way to run trim and any other garbage collection commands that windows runs on an SSD
 
Here is my Seagate 600 SSD 240 GB that I use for my OS. When I receive my 970 Pro which I will be using as my OS drive going forward, I will test again.

@qu4k3r why are you using IDE mode on your mobo instead of AHCI mode
 
i dont really know... i have never touched that settings... lol

if i set to AHCI mode, it could affect HDD performance? because i also have 3 hd drives... all sata 2 ssd + 3 hdd

edit: i tried switching to ahci mode and got bsod loading windows, if i must switch to achi and after that go to reinstall windows... then i seriously doubt i'll do it

There is no Rapid mode on 970 Pro. This is the score without. Per Samsung's website: "Samsung NVMe SSDs do not support RAPID Mode. "

Its the most recent version of AS SSD available for download on most websites. Its a more recent version than the other screen shot scores on this page.

What in the world is wrong with the SSD I bought on eBay? Micron M699 1TB.

@Smeado You are using IDE mode (ie. "compatible") on hard drive controller, instead of AHCI.
Also, you picked for testing your 1TB hard drive, instead of 1TB SSD ;)

Thank you so much for the help. Switching to AHCI made the computer crash during boot and I almost couldn't get it back up and running. It's running now. Maybe I'll just leave it alone.
 
If you installed windows on IDE mode, you need to modify system registry to use AHCI driver BEFORE restart (plenty on guides how to do it "IDE to AHCI Windows 10").
Don't sound so serious/panicked, you only would need to switch back to IDE if system didn't booted on AHCI to get it back and running.

Either way : Try testing M.2 drive, and NOT your HDD.
