    Why is one of my NVME SSD's very slow with writes.

    It's an Asus ROG STRIX Z390-F GAMING - one other thing I noticed today was that the Firecuda is in the number 2 slot and WD is in the number 1 slot.

    Why is one of my NVME SSD's very slow with writes.

    One thing that has just struck me - I can't remember what my previous CDM scores were in the past but I have recently changed from a 2080ti GPU to a 3080 - Could that be the issue ?

    Why is one of my NVME SSD's very slow with writes.

    Well sure but surely not that much performance with just Win 10 running and no foreground apps ? I mean the config is very similar to my other workstation and I get amazing write speeds on my OS drive.

    Not really - In fact I asked him the same and his response was something like "Maybe I could use it in the kitchen sometimes!" - So I guess, no - He works from home and doesn't really go anywhere LOL.
