Does your Windows 11 PC feel like it's stuck in quicksand? Before you start blaming it on demons or an overstuffed Recycle Bin, let's talk about SSDs (Solid State Drives). These sleek storage devices are some of the best things to happen to computing since Wi-Fi, but like all tech, they can slow...
I have connected my computer through USB 3.0 cable with an external (backup) hard disk (Hitachi HDS724040ALE640, SATA III, 7200rpm, 4TB, NTFS formatted, empty).
The USB controller in external case box and the
USB port on mainboard are USB 3.0 compatible.
When I benchmark now the transfer rate...

So here's the story: I have a 500GB 970 Evo Plus NVMe, about 40% full on the motherboard as a C:\ system drive. Works as quick as the board/CPU/RAM (ASUS 970 gaming aura, FX8350, 16GB) will let it. It's only PCIe 2. It's still quite quick. 1.4GB/s read, 1.1 write (seq) from Crystal Mark

HGST 4TB 6Gb/s 7200RPM HDN724040ALE640
There is plenty of space on each drive.

I keep getting this BSOD on my laptop and it started yesterday. I have an SSD and it's less than a year old, so I doubt it failed. It's a Crucial MX100 and Crystal Disk Mark says its health is at 95%.
I'm running an sfc /scannow operation right...

Hello all,
Ever wonder why your new SSD doesn't meet your benckmarking expectations when using tools like AS SSD and/or Crystal Disk Mark? Well, there are two reasons why this might happen. First and foremost, those programs' benchmarking algorithms are not clearly defined (eg, understood) and...
