SSD 840Pro only read and write at 250mb/s+-

[Ctheg]

Hi there. I just got my new Samsung 840Pro 256GB SSD.

I’m using a serial sata 6.0GB/s and I’m only getting half read write speed of what the 840Pro should be doing.
I have updated firmware.

I have added some pics so you can see.
Someone know what the problem is?

Check your sata ports, you should be plugged in to the white ports, if that fails then try updating your chipset drivers.....

You need to make sure you are connected to the right SATA port...

Those are still some good speeds compared to my old HDD that... I'm still using unfortunatly.. but I am not going to post any result here cause I am only going to make a fool out of myself.

Drives perform worse when they're being used as a Boot drive. My SSDs do the same thing.

Well, I got it working now. I'm a tard (my girlfriend agrees) for putting it in the wrong conector.
Here is my new benchmark if you want to see. Thanks for your help, nice of you.

That's double the speeds you got before.. That is so fast!

Hehe, well I went from an old Intel SSD that was doing the same read write so that would be a tragedy for me.

And thanks for your help
