Hi,
Can anyone help me with PC pitstop results .
I Got an overall score of 1206.
Problems were : Insufficient internet cache - I increased it to what they advised.
I was also told I had a slow write speed on two of my Drives ?
I only have one drive but it is partitioned into 7 parts , I am confused how one partition can write slower than another.
C - 2.65 MB/s
D - 5.96 MB/s
E - 3.18 MB/s
F - 4.13 MB/s
The others are hidden.
I checked that the DMA was enabled for the transfer mode but this applies to the full drive not just a single partition ?
Any ideas anyone ?

you have to defragment the partitions, if one is fragmented but another one is perfect, it is going to have a harder time reading the fragmented one therefore it will have a slower read speed.
