Make sure you use the correct cable and port
I bought this unit to use for video editing on my new Mac Mini. Initially, I connected it with a USB C cable that I had laying around. The transfer speeds were disheartening to the point I started thinking about plan B (37.7 MB/s write and 40.8 MB/s read). Luckily, instead of returning the SSD, I tried the cable that came with it. Connection to the USB port yielded much better speeds (419.8 MB/s write and 426.4 MB/s read). Finally, using a Thunderbolt 3 port, I got speeds that should work for my intended use (920.2 MB/s write and 950.2 MB/s read).
