DC P3600 Series running at half speed

Just bought new kit.

Intel DC P3600 Series 800GB SSD PCI-e Adaptor Card Solid State Drive (SSDPEDME800G401)

Asus Xonar DX 7.1 PCI-Express Sound Card

Intel Core i7 5930K

32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 2400MHz Quad Channel Kit

Asus X99-S Intel X99 (Socket 2011) DDR4 ATX Motherboard

Microsoft Windows 8.1 64 Bit

2 x SLI GTX 980 video cards

System works fine. Intel SSD is configured with 8.1 and works will all the software

All bench testing on the components with PassMark shows they are all working fine except for the SSD which is only performing at 800Meg/s

I tried also using Atto bench test and got the same results. The drive is running slower than expected.

All the correct Intel drivers are installed. The Intel test package says it is working OK and link power manager is enabled.

However is read/write benchmarks are less than a 1/3 of what you would expect/ Any ideas guys, is it to do with not enough PCIe lanes being free ??

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hello EntenErazor,

Please look in your system what version you have. This is how you do.

1 - Access Control Panel

2 - Select the option the says System.

3 - Once you click on it, you will be able to see all the information on your system so you can install the right version.

*You can try installing a 32 bit version. Let us know if this worked.

Hi,

Please download X86-64 (windows) IOMeter, and try to run it. At least on my system it works properly, but IA64 can not...

I would like to suggest you to remove one graphics card or audio card before test.

Thanks fro update. The X86 - 64 software worked OK. I have put all the settings aleki gave me into software. When I run the two tests for read and write is asked me to save results to a location then just sits there with a 'Preparing Drives' in the bottom right hand box and nothing else happens ?? How long does the test normally take ?

Whens electing the test is it the drive 'C' or the Volume below that is ticked ?
