@Induna   Is right about that 840 Evo's numbers being way too hight to be Sata.

The Samsung is an 981M NVMe SSD, correct.  Samsung... link.

The read speeds are quite slow compared to what Samsung says they should potentially be.

I dont know why, it could be a physical issue with the way the motherboard is wired.

 

You can contact HP Support and get warranty help with this.

They will have better access to that models info than I do.

The numbers for the samsung evo 840 were higher because of the RAPID mode. Here are the numbers with the RAPID mode switched off:

So my new disk is faster, I did not contact HP.

 

Last info: I had done several tests before the windows 10 1803 installation and the write speeds of the disk were not good (about 500 MB/s). After the installation it's been multiplied by 3, that means the new drivers have increased performance and that also explains why the installation was rather slow. I just thought it was still slow but now with the correct comparison I realize it is not.

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Best regards,

Martin
