Why can't the speed reach 3000MB/S?

Several factors can affect the actual data transfer speed, preventing it from reaching the maximum 3000MB/s:

Image: Diagram explaining common reasons for not reaching maximum transfer speeds.

• Older Thunderbolt 3 Laptops: Some older Thunderbolt 3 laptops may have speed limitations.
• NVM Firmware/System Limitations:
  • If your NVM Firmware is not updated, your laptop may not be fully compatible with USB4 and could downgrade to USB3.2 10Gbps speeds.
  • System or CPU limitations can also restrict speeds to between 1000MB/s and 2500MB/s.

For detailed information on checking Thunderbolt/USB Host Information, please refer to the following resources:

• How to Check Thunderbolt 3/4 Host Information
• ASMedia ASM2464PD Test Condition and Status

If you identify an NVM or firmware limitation, contact your laptop brand for potential updates.

אַלגעמיינע עצות פֿאַר פּראָבלעם־לייזונג:

• Ensure the SSD is correctly installed and seated firmly in the enclosure.
• Verify that the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the enclosure and your device.
• Test the enclosure with a different USB-C port or device to rule out port-specific issues.
