Hi, new PC builder here.
I recently bought a MSI S270 SATA SSD, after trusting the ssd-tester . com benchmark results of near 500MB/s read write speeds, but after installing it and benchmark on my own PC, the result is WAY below the benchmark online, its a 350MB/s seq read/write.

I know that the 500MB/s is a promotional term but isnt the ssd-tester result ran by real people? Or is my setup that is weird? I am sure connected to the correct SATA 3 cables come with the mother board and psu.
