Help with my SSD
This is like my 3rd day with my new computer. Im trying to download GTA V, but it gets blocked to 1.5 mbp/s. Limit bandwith is disabled, I've spent hours trying to fix this, and now I think it could be a problem of my SSD. Does someone knows hot to make it work faster??? (Its writing speed is of 900mbp/s). Thank you.

You can try choosing different download regions but many servers are being hammered right now because of the Summer Sales event.

I've tryed more than 100 servers it's the same on all of them
Download something with a browser. Is that faster?

You want to know where the slow speed happens......

I assume its not your ssd limiting it to 1,5 whatever

what?
You have 20 mbit line,
and steam loads with 1,5 mByte?

Type out the values you see

Connection speeds are measured in megabits, downloads are measured in megabytes. If you're getting 20Mbps in connection speed tests, that equates to a max of 2.5MBps. The capital and lowercase B in 20Mbps and 2.5MBps matters. If you're not explicit about those values it just creates problems in diagnosing those issues and we can't tell if you're confused by megabits and megabytes and are using them interchangeably or what.

And even at 20Mbps, there's lots of reasons why you wouldn't always get 2.5MBps download speeds.

To address your original post, there's pretty much no way it's a SSD issue.

I get 20 megabytes per second on all speed tests. And when I open the tasks manager, it says im consuming 12 megabytes per second, even with all apps closed
