EeveeMasterMo: I’m sorry to hear that you’re not fully satisfied with the speed performance of your 870 EVO SSD. Your 00GB drive was engineered to deliver speeds of up to 560MB/s Seq. Read and 530MB/s Seq. Write. If you haven't done so already, you may want to use Samsung Magician to run Performance Optimization, ensure that your motherboard supports SATA III interface, check that all performance related settings are set correctly (cached enabled, AHCI enabled), and be sure you have the latest version of the driver. As there are various factors that could affect speed, I would encourage you to call Samsung Customer Support for further assistance to troubleshoot your issue.
