    Slow SATA Speed On Windows 10


    Hi,

    Just last week I upgraded my computer from an Intel i5 2500 that was on the ASUS P8 B75 board with USB 3.0 to an Intel i5 6500 on the MSI Z170A Tomahawk AC with USB 3.1.

    The issue I am now having is that my read speeds from any sata drive is super slow, about 10MBPS, however copying from USB 3 to USB 3 works fine, I get about 100MBPS average.

    I have clean installed Windows 10 numerous times, however when I did a clean install of Windows 7 everything works fine and fast. I have even went to the device manager and changed each sata drive policy but that did not work.

    I have no idea what the problem is and microsoft always gives some stupid answer that never works.

    Thanks.

    If you have Intel Rapid Storage Driver installed , uninstall it, reboot and see.

    Is you BIOS set to AHCI or IDE?

    I did not have this installed so I installed it thinking it would help make the drives faster but it never, so I just uninstalled it thereafter.

    I'm baff right now too, I took a look at the MOBOs page and it should be tearing up the data:
    • 6 x SATA 6Gb/s ports*
    • 1 x M.2 Key M Socket supports type 2280/2260/2242 storage devices in both PCIE Gen3 x4 & SATA mode
    - Supports PCIe 3.0 x4 and SATA 6Gb/s standards,4.2cm/ 6cm/ 8cm length M.2 SSD cards
    - Supports PCIe 3.0 x4 NVMe Mini-SAS SSD with Turbo U.2 Host Card***
    • Supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 5 and RAID 10 for SATA storage devices

    Exactly, everything works fine on windows 7 though, I am just as baffed as you are. Windows 10 is supposed to be much more advanced.

    Then type this in an elevated prompt and post here a screen shot:
    Winsat Disk -Drive C
    Do the same for the "poor perfoming" drive
