Ensuring peak performance for your MP600 M.2 SSD

If you are using Windows 10 and your MP600 NVMe M.2 solid state drive is experiencing a drop in performance, there are two methods you can use to improve performance:

  • Use TRIM to optimize your SSD, either with GUI or Powershell
  • Disable Fast Boot

Both methods require you to have administrator access. We recommend that you save all open applications before attempting any of the methods above.

NOTE: We recommend executing the steps one at a time, and that you do not combine operations.

  • Using TRIM (GUI method)
  • Using TRIM (Powershell method)
  • Disabling Fast Boot

 

Using TRIM (GUI method)

  1. Open Explorer and go to This PC.
  2. Right-click your SSD and select Properties.
  3. Click the Tools tab.
  4. Click Optimize.

Using TRIM (Powershell method)

  1. Click the Start button.
  2. Type powershell in the search bar.

    • The letter of your main storage device is usually C; in such a case, you would type Optimize-Volume -DriveLetter C -ReTrim -Verbose.
