I have just installed a NAS and noticed some slow write speeds. So fired up HD tune and noticed some odd differences between drives.
Screenshots show the HD tune graphs. One of the 3TB drives I have is dog slow and erratic but shows healthy. Other shots for the other drives to compare. Any ideas what maybe causing this?
BIOS is old also, could do with updating but the system runs fine. Worth the risk?
Also see device manager. I thought i might not have the AHCI drivers loaded correctly, does this suggest I do?
