Slow Write Speed (2TB Crucial Bx500 SSD) No Matter What
crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:
Hello,
I have a late 2013 27" that I replaced the failing HDD with a new 2TB Crucial Bx500 SSD.
Write speeds are an abysmal 20-40MB/s no mattter what.
I have also replaced the SATA cable AND enabled Trim.
I have tried also formatting the drive to exFat and then back to APFS with a clean install of Catalina, and then migrated the data again with migration assistant.
Originally, I thought the drive or cable was bad, so I replaced both again.
The issue persists. Write speeds hover from 20-40 MB/s.
Thank you for your consideration and help. I will be sure to respond as promptly as possible.

The issue seemed to be the logic board because nothing was working, but then I plugged the drive into another Mac and the issue replicated itself. It seems to be a very obscure software-related issue that persists even after a clean install and data migration. We are starting fresh with no migration to resolve the issue, Thank you to the iFixIt community as always for jumping into action with my question.
