QUOTE(ljf123 @ Aug 13 2021, 03:33 PM) Hi everyone, currently my laptop storage is Kingston A1000 NVME 256GB {60gb free now}
(OS, all the program I installed here like Office, Adobe Program - PS, AI, Pr, Internet Browser - Chrome, Mozilla, etc) Seagate ST1000LM035 HDD 1TB {300gb free now} (Others like document, download, pictures, movies, etc + Games) If I change my HDD to 1tb MX500 SSD, will it drastically improved the speed of running Adobe Programs and others program like Internet browser? Thanks QUOTE(iZuDeeN @ Aug 13 2021, 08:37 PM) yes..changing from HDD to SSD will guarantee feel the difference changing from one SSD (Gen 3) to another SSD (Gen 4) realistically have no difference in daily use that's why people always ask to change from HDD to SDD if that's the only upgrade you can afford.. you can notice the difference compared to change cpu / add ram etc Only issue for full SSD setup is large files like videos. If you save a lot of those, you may have to bring external HDD along if you wanna keep TBW warranty in check.

Shopee has a lot of dubious seller, check for seller rating and dated joined? share the links to prevent more people fallen into the scam. ask for technical support from official website, to verify the authenticity of the product, at the same time make complain to shopee. even a badly configured SSD could not be that slow. the benchmark you posted are same as USB2 thumbdrive.

Seems like thumb drive with USB2 speed.

This is why you buy only known reputable brands. My RMA took only 2 days when I deal with distributor directly. MX500 1TB on SATA3:

USB2 is the connection, what do you expect? It's not the ssd issue, it's PEBKAC issue. Even the USB3 is considered slow without UASP enabled. There are no magic can make it faster, usb2 is the bottleneck.

There are no magic can make it faster, usb2 is the bottleneck. PC SATA interface, use as normal single drive for Windows PC. After that I plug to USB to re-verify the speed and comparing with that 5400rpm HDD. This post has been edited by voscar: Aug 22 2021, 01:13 PM

Since everyone keep asking the same question... It's ADATA SU650. there are things that can cause slow performance of ssd, e.g., 4k misalignment due to cloning, bad cable, bad sata port, driver issue, bios misconfiguration, etc. for now, you can use adata ssd toolbox to check health status of the drive, and run as ssd benchmark to see if the 4k alignment is good. for rma of the ssd, you might wanna contact adata at fb, https://www.facebook.com/AdataMalaysia/ to get more information about the process.
