Hi!
I bought a rather cheap but not so cheap 1TB SSD drive advertised at rw speeds of 450MB/s. I have 2 thinkpads, one X1 3rd gen and one X1 6th gen. Now here is what happened: 1. On 3rd gen laptop with F32 I tested (and made a full backup) : 45MB/s (NTFS) 2. I installed a the "brand new" F33, restored my backup and...: 85MB/s (NTFS) 3. Since I was a tad late updating I told myself let's do it on the 6th Gen too. Did a full backup on F32 at : ~400MB/s!!! (NTFS and ext4 - did several backups) 4. I installed a fresh new F33 and the restore speed was then... 50MB/s :-( (ext4) 5. I just restested the disk on the 3rd gen laptop and I am now (ext4) at 45MB/s (I also just upgrade my BIOS to its latest version for this test).
So I was wondering if there was any logical explanations and things I could do to ensure I use the disk at its maximum speed.
Thank you.
Fred
