My problem was nearly same your or others. My SSD WD green 120gb (2018) is low of write, after I ugraded firmware from UE360000 to UE450000 and then benchmark by CrystalDiskMark 5.5.0 go to result beter that Seq read same 470, write increase from 60 to 268 MB/s as attatched picture (maybe you can’t see it, i don’t know to upload picture), It’s suprise that 4k write speed increase but 4k read speed reduce, both of 4k write and read is lower other SSDs. I think It is too good, need to wait until having new firmware ???
I think everyone should tolerate with this poor product or otherwise, use another brand in stead of this. Firmware only fix a little bit but the benchmark is very low. No hope no disappoint.
Ok. I was nearly very regretful after bought it but too late. It 's not too badly but if getting a other mark like Samsung or Intel is better

Me too. Luckily I depend on its reading speed rather than writing speed, so there is no direct impact to me but I just feel brought a poor item. You can see not just this product but this brand’s other product also have similar issue. By the way, I will not buy this brand anymore.

I was having the same problem, just upgraded to the latest firmware UI450000, but I’m still reading very low on my SSD(4kib q8T8 and Q32T1)
Hi,
I have also bought this sh*t SSD for a second PC, and returned it after the first day!
Shame on you WD! this is much much slower than my 5 year old Samsung 840 EVO!
Very very very slow SSD
Old firmware
After the update
Any idea why I’m getting such low read/write speeds? It’s a brand new WD Green 250GB SSD with latest firmware.
after i upgrade my firmware there is different between my test benchmark speed and the real speed that i have help me pleaseeeeeeee

Hey, did you solve your problem? I like when I can write quickly as I have a lot of writing assignments. However, I sometimes use services that help me to finish them quicker. But before choosing a good service I have read a lot of reviews as I had some unpleasant situations in the past. So, now I try to work only with professionals from whom I can learn new things. If someone also needs such a service, you can read more about it.
