Re: NVME Intel Optane - same servers different performance

Thanks for suggestion
However same "bad"server was working fine until I updated firmware 
Now, all 4 server have the same firmware but one has lower performance

I will try what you suggested though although, as I said, same server with same NVME had good performance before updating server firmware 

Thanks

Hello Steven,

You could swap the SSDs from the hosts to see if the error is migrating.

If it migrates, I would appreciate that the affected SSD simply offers
less performance than the others. Possibly an RMA reason depending on
what the manufacturer guarantees.
If not, the system must be further searched for possible sources of error.
