SSD help?

Hey does anyone know why my read speeds are coming up slower than my write speeds?

Its a OZC "Bigfoot" 120GB

Compared to my mechanical drive

Thanks for the help.

The Write back cache is maybe doing it, some HDD's get the same thing and it's usually more pronounced on them.

My computer>right click, properties>Hardware tab>select SSD>Properties>Policies

The tick boxes there control the Write caching.

What you're expeiencing is nothing to worry about though.
