Samsung Evo Rapid Mode help

Hi guys,

I have a Samsung Evo 500GB and I recently activated the RAPID mode but my speed benchmarks seem to a lot higher than I have seen around the internet.

Can any of you shed some light as to why these results are this high?

My RAM is Kingston Beast 16gb 2133Mhz.

I wouldn't read too much into Rapid Mode. It is just a novelty. Just tested mine:

Its a caching of data into RAM. So it depends on the speed of your RAM also. think it caches upto 1GB of data most used.

Thanks guys.

I will just leave RAPID on, I guess it wont decrease performance.
