Slow Write speeds
on July 20, 2024

Greetings.
I have problems with write speed on this drive... The read speed is fine with transferspeed between 400-460MB/s. But when writing to the drive its only between 30-50MB/s. Ma old WD elements mechanical drive is faster than this SSD.
When doing a benchmark test in Samsung Magician it says 438MB/s S read & 440MB/s S Write.

A Disappointment
on March 29, 2025
Posted by: MichaelH
I purchased this product August 2024. I started off being a satisfied customer. I used my SSD to store my music because I'm a professional DJ. I only used 6.3TBs and it has slowed down Serato DJ Pro on both my Macbooks causing delays with music loading.and performances. I'm not happy with this product
