SSD Speed Test
Hi - I just installed this Samsung 850 Pro 512GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD into my MacBook Pro Mid 2010 (running Maverick-10.9.5) and am getting 256MB/s (write) 268.0MB/s (read), when I should be getting "up to 550 megabytes per second (MB/s) and 520MB/s respectively". TRIM is enabled. Speed tested with Blackmagic design Disk Speed Test utility. Why is the discrepency? What about the following sentence (which I'm not sure I understand) "sequential read and write performance up to 550 megabytes per second (MB/s) and 520MB/s respectively". I'd appreciate a reply. I'm not a techie. Simple instructions would be appreciated. Thank you.
MacBook Pro (17-inch Mid 2010), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
