Hi,

Had this from new (December 2019), 240gb with OS (Windows 11).
Write speed has dropped suddenly to around 300mb (should be up to 3,000mb).
Read speed ok as advertised.

Any ideas?
Done some Google searches and seems quite a few people have had the same issue (firmware 12.3).
Could it be W11 related / anything I can try - or should I RMA it?

I also have a 1tb version of the same (for games), and that is working fine.

Thanks
 
Highest write speed I have managed is 1000mb, can be anything between that and as low as 300.
Will RMA if I have to (still some warranty remaining), however that would be a ballache as it is my OS drive.
 
Corsair are sending me a new drive to clone my OS over to, then return the faulty drive.
What free software is best to use to do this please?
Expect I can remove my other m2 (with games on), to clone to the new drive, then swap them? (without losing any data)
 
corsair ssd toolbox actually has clone in it
though never actually tested it
usually i also use macrium
i have 2 x 960gb mp510 never had a problem with mine
though weirdly i seem to have a firmware version that
no one else seemed to have
last time it came up in the forum anyway
