It works fine now.. I can't say for sure what the problem was.
Thank you all for the support.


The same should have been achieved by the PSID revert, hence my suggestion.

Lemme do some asking.

Current 600P Firmware for your drive is 121C. Is that what Intel's SSD Drive Toolbox reports?
https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/products/94922/memory-and-storage/consumer-ssds/intel-ssd-600p-series.html

Lastly which M.2 position is this drive mounted to on the MB? If M2_1 and you've installed that blasted heatsink over it, take it off!

.


Apologies. i was tired and made a typo. it's a 660p drive. sorry for making that mistake.

regarding the screenshot, here's the actual text :

Description     Disk drive
Manufacturer     (Standard disk drives)
Model     INTEL SSDPEKNW010T8
Bytes/Sector     512
Media Loaded     Yes
Media Type     Fixed hard disk
Partitions     1
SCSI Bus     0
SCSI Logical Unit     0
SCSI Port     3
SCSI Target ID     0
Sectors/Track     63
Size     953.86 GB (1,024,203,640,320 bytes)
Total Cylinders     124,519
Total Sectors     2,000,397,735
Total Tracks     31,752,345
Tracks/Cylinder     255
Partition     Disk #3, Partition #0
Partition Size     953.85 GB (1,024,191,365,120 bytes)
Partition Starting Offset     16,777,216 bytes

I had the latest intel ssd toolbox, tried to up the firmware, already had latest firmware, did an optimize, no change.

regarding slots, i tested both. the one closest to the cpu and the other one. with or without heatsink mnade no difference, max drive temps rarely reached 40 C. it's not overheating.

Updating BIOS doesn't automatically clear CMOS.

In fact, a good practice is to clear the CMOS before updating the BIOS.

You won't believe how much junk is left over from BIOS to BIOS, if you don't clear CMOS.

Wild guess here - maybe you DO need the intel NVMe driver for the AMD platform? It's worth a shot.

Another thing to try would be CMOS clear, PSID revert under Linux LiveCD, create just 1 large partition, and run some benchmarks while in the same live session.


I thought it is. since hwinfo reports it as being gen 3 x4 at x4
to be frank i had intel driver installed and uninstalled. it made no difference. i know because under device manager - storage controllers instead of standard nvm express controller as it is now it was intel something.
no change.

linux related, i booted into linux mint 19.1 which is the latest and the speed is somewhat similar, 65MB/s sustained, instead of 50 as it is in windows.

I updated bios yesterday to 3.20 so it got cmos cleared.
psid related, i never encrypted anything. it's the first time i hear about psid too.
