    Anyone else here got an 850 Evo and Samsung magician software installed?

    I ran the Samsung magician benchmark a few time and my read/write iops seem to be around 70,000 when they should be hitting 90,000.

    Not sure if this is because of my sub-million-pound computer or something else.

    For reference, I'm in AHCI mode and plugged into an Intel 6Gbps sata port.

    Could one of you supercomputer toting billionaires run the same benchmark and see what you get? Thanks!

    Edit: Found a few tips I'm gonna try out tonight.

    Use Intel IRST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) SATA controller drivers instead of the default microsoft ones.

    In the BIOS under Advanced for the Storage section there is an option for SATA Aggressive Power Management or something like that, disable it.
