If you use your HDD/SDD instead of RAM for SD's cache don't you get similar results?
Casual observation may be deceiving. Why not run a benchmark comparison (as I have) and post the results.
My original HDD crashed, so it has been 'buried'. ;)
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced degraded drive performance when Shadow Defender is protecting your C-drive? It so happens that when...
I typically use SD to trial an app (or run a benchmark) as I can be assured of no 'leftovers' after a restart. I can't honestly say I've noticed a...
@Brian K, would you believe that the culprit is Shadow Defender! When enabled it clobbers my SSD's throughput. :eek: The clue: It dawned on me...
@Brian K, I think I may have found the problem with the other benchmarks. Stay tuned...
@Brian K - Samsung Magician contradicts the preceding benches! :confused: [ATTACH]
@Brian K, yet another (confirming) test... [ATTACH]
@Brian K [ATTACH] Seems to me to be very bad !!!
I'll do that Brian. Can you tell me what read-write values I should expect from a Samsung 850 EVO SSD?

Sorry, for some reason the upload is not cooperating. I'll copy & paste...
Ever since replacing my HDD with the SSD I've known something isn't right. Samsung Magician gave me a clue when it said "AHCI is deactivated" but...
@Brian K, here are the items you requested.
I guess you didn't read my OP...
I sure will Brian, but that will have to wait until I return home tomorrow eve. I'm hitting the sack.
Sorry, I don't get it. :confused: ....I'm concerned about my SSD's performance, not graphics performance! -- besides, I'm not a gamer so why...
Brian, I've been googling for just that (over the past several hours) - so far no cigar. :( I'm about to retire for the day as I have a 6:30AM...
If it goes wrong (for any reason) and my notebook won't boot, will I be able to bootup with WinPE and re-flash the BIOS?
Here are my current performance numbers ...and they were the same when my 'Primary hard drive' actually was a hard drive!!! Processor - 7.6 Memory...
Brian, I found the pdf and checked out those pages - but as I'm not too technically savvy, it's 'way over my head'. o_O
