[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1929342, member: 396914"] How full are the SSDs? Once an SSD gets beyond about 60% full, it slows down. Try to keep the SSDs below 50%, if you can. How are you measuring the slowdown? What is it you are doing that takes 4+ seconds to accomplish? You mentioned searching, how are you doing that? Could the search be the slow part, not the drives? Hubs also slow down SSD throughput. Connect directly if you can. [/QUOTE]
