Windows 10

anything I don't mind said:
that sounds like you don't have it in a 6gbps sata port.

If it is that slow then i would send it back to be honest as its meant to be 510/480 based on benchmarks.

did you enable AHCI and sata3 in the bios?

Use atto diskbenchmark on default setting and post screen shot http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Benchmarks/ATTO-Disk-Benchmark.shtml

This is my old samsung should receive my mx100 512gb this week will post another screenshot.

It would be quite a coincidence if we've all done that.

All my SSDs are running slower than they should be in my PC with Windows 10 on it.

I've used ATTO, and I get the correct speeds for my RAID array, however ATTO isn't that good since it uses compressible data which pushes up the speeds significantly.

AS SSD gives me real world results. I've had almost 1GB read and write with this SSD array in Windows 8,same white 6Gb/s ports.

At the time AS SSD was giving the same results as I was getting transferring large files like disk images between drives.

Doing the same thing is Windows 10 I'm getting the same speeds as I'm getting in AS SSD which shows it's something to do with Windows 10.
 
The SSD benchmark above had write speeds up to 250. I did post a feedback on the windows feedback with the screenshot the atto benchmark saying its slow write speed on ssd. I doubt they will read it though. Quite poor that they have bad ssd performance.

Yep, however my read speeds are down also. In ATTO my read and write is okay, butin AS SSD they're both down.

It's not a complaint, I'm aware of the sort of bugs that you deal with when it comes to releases like this.

For me, this was just an exercise in understanding, to some degree, what was going on.

I wasn't sure if it was just a bad install, bad drivers, bad BIOS settings. It's saved me trying out a fresh install and I'm happy to wait for it to be fixed as whilst my speeds are slow they're not that slow that it becomes unusable.
 
I have a Samsung evo 840 that I am going to be installing windows 10 on to today.

my normal read and write speeds are 410mb read and 250mb write. I have a marvel controller with x 1 6GB ports so even thought its on 6GGB the controllers are quite bad.

I use the Samsung magi an software to do the speed tests

Is that Windows 10 still? If so, what motherboard/drive controller is your motherboard using?

I installed the windows 8.1 drivers from the gigabyte website for the storage controllers, but i think windows 10 auto installed newer ones.

I have marvel and silicon sata controllers on the mb and i am not sure which one is in use on the ssd.
 
The SSD models have all been mentioned, though I was under the impression that Intel has been using the same drive controllers for a little while for 6Gb/s ports.

But I'm running the Intel C606 chipset. Strangely, they all seem to be Gigabyte boards with Intel drive controllers.

I might actually uninstall the drivers from Intel's/Gigabyte's site to see if Windows' own ones do anything like you said.
 
I've ran one of the Sandisk Ultra Plus II 256GB drives on another PC with an AMD board and Windows 8.1, and it's getting much closer to the rated specs, about 450MB/s read and write.
 
I was using windows 10 but went back to 7 as my games would not load properly on the latest iso.

I have the following motherboard

Asus P6X58D-E Intel X58 (Socket 1366) DDR3 Motherboard

using sata 3 on it but uses the marvell controller which is known for very poor speeds.

I get 410mb read and 250mb write, when using the intel sata 2 ports I get 280mb read and 272mb write

had all the drivers installed from the asus website for windows
 
I finally fixed the disk problems, i needed the intel rapid storage technology. the filename on the gigabyte website, mb_driver_intel_irst_8series.exe

Must have missed that first time round.

I have this problem in the start menu now, you can see the start menu items have this block around them and i have also started having that problem where all the start menu and taskbar go black and when you hover over the colour comes back.

The shortcuts should have transparent backgrounds as it looks ugly.

I'm trying W10 on a 9 year old P4 630 3Ghz 4GB ram AMD R7 200 2GB ram.

Runs nice and I'm already liking W10 a lot.

It uses hardware acceleration for most things, but not, surprisingly, for Apple iTunes etc.

What CPU is best to start with for iTunes HD playback?
 
Just a heads up to anybody running Nvidia cards on build 9879 - do not try to install Nvidia drivers as it causes WHEA errors and blue screen loop. Stick with the Microsoft driver for now until Nvidia start making beta drivers for win 10.
