Let's see if you *really* listen, as others have already mentioned "better fan control" opn trheir "wish list": Better fan control in iCUE! SInce your ecosystem is completely locked, we have to use iCUe to control our fan speeds on Corsair hardware. And fan speed control in iCUE leaves a lot to be desired, as in, it's not at all very good. Some ideas that I think would improve this: 1) Give us the ability to create "virtual sensors", by combining existing sensors, by using simple aritmetic when combining them: Some examples: a) Sensor type Maximum - Should be able to combine 2 or more temperature sensors, and should always show the value of the sensor with the highest temperature. This way we could have a fans controlled by more than one temperatrue sensor. b) Sensor type Difference - Should be able to combine 2 temperature sensors, and should always show the difference (eg sensor 1 minus sensor 2). This would let us control our fan speed depending on delta temeperatures, eg the difference in temperature. This would be extremely usefor for: * AiO radiator fan speeds: Should be controlled depending on the difference between ambient air and coolant temperature, so a sensor on a Commander Pro that measures intake air temperature in combination with the AiOs own coolant temperature sensor (coolent air temperature MINUS ambient air temperature) would be a much better way of controlling radiator fan speeds than coolant temperature alone. * Case fan speeds: A coupe of temperature sensors on a Commander Pro and you could measure intake air temperature and case temperature. The difference between those would be a much better way of controlling case fans than any of the current alternatives. 2) It would also be nice to be able to assigne more than one fan curve to one or a group of fans. That way we could have different fan curves for different temperature sources, and let them all control selected fans. The way this should work is that the highest speed value from any of the assigned fan curves should be applied to the controlled fan(s). 3) Fan curves does not have to be simple temperature/speed curves we are stuck with now. Let's have the following: a) Graph: (eg the current temperature/speed type curves) b) Target: (Try to keep temperature of a chosen sensor between two target values) c) Mix: Apply a mix function (min, max, sum, average, subtract) to two different fan curves 4) Gives us control of hysteresis (how much a temperature should change before acted on), response time (how long it should take for fans to react to a temperature change), if hysteresis should be applied up or down the curve or both (eg when fan speeds increase or decrease or both), and how much (in percentages) a fan is allowed to increase it's speed "per measuring cycle", and likewise how much (in percentages) a fan is allowed to decrease it's speed in one "measurement cycle". Please be a bit more creative than just to continue to offer the old temperature/speed type fan control, with only one cure and one temperature sensor per fan or group of fans. It's outdated and not good enough for optimal fan control. The performance of your hardware is being held back by less than stellar software. Gives us some or all of the above please!

Thanks a million, BladeXR, you just made my day. My H115i is up and running again with the latest firmware. Lesson learned (disable HWiNFO when updating the firmware) and I saved a copy of the firmware just in case. :)

Anyone have the firmware file? I Just bricked my H115i Pro Xt the exact same way, and the firmware file in the link above has been deleted. Reached out to Corsair but who knows if and when they'll respond.

The same thing happened to me. I changed my slow MP600 for a Samsung 980 Pro, and when using the MP600 as a data drive only the speed is consistent "as advertised" or very close.

@Goucha, your speed is pretty much what you can expect. You don't have a PCIe 4.0 compatible motherboard so you will not be able to use the Force MP600 to its full potential.

Don't accept that answer, it is NOT "OK" for an SSD to decrease to one-third of the advertised write-speed when it's filled about 50%. I bought this drive because of the superior performance it was supposed to offer. In my case, I got an RMA approval from the original retailer where I bought it. They were unable (read: unwilling) to offer an advance replacement, but I came to an agreement where I ordered and paid for a Samsung 980 Pro first, and then they will credit me for the Corsair Force MP600. So basically I'm exchanging the Force MP600 for a Samsung 980 Pro. I don't trust Corsair with storage solutions after this so better stick with a tried-and-true manufacturer.

But of course we are all running AMD Ryzen CPUs, it's the only CPU that supports motherboards with PCIe 4.0 so paying the premium for a PCIe 4.0 compatible NVME drive with any other CPU just makes no sense.

Will I get any help there? It states that only goods bought on corsair.com can be returned through that channel and that goods bought elsewhere have to be returned through whatever retail channel it was bought through. In my case, that is a bit troublesome. Unless you are unable to help I guess I'll just make that "Thor's Hammer" video, I'm honestly fed up with this slow drive.

I've already tried that, didn't make any difference at all. I've also tried all the 3 M.2 slots on my motherboard, 2 connects to PCH, and 1 connects to the CPU. But that does not make any difference at all either. My WD has normal speeds, and higher write speeds than my MP600 and it co-exists with my MP600 just fine. So in any case it's not a solution to remove one drive. I would like to know how to RMA this drive please, @Corsair Kevin or @Corsair CJ or whoever else from Corsair that might be reading this. After more than a year with this issue, it seems like you're still "reviewing" what could be the cause, I would like to RMA my drive or get a refund and move on, please. It's not just a bit slower than advertised, it's many times slower than advertised.

I built a new computer a couple of months ago and chose the Corsair Force MP600 1TB because I wanted an SSD as fast as they get. I ran some benchmarks just when I finished the build before I installed my usual software, and everything was as expected. But after a couple of weeks I ran the test over at userbenchmark.com and although it said my SSD speed was "Outstanding", it also said the performance was terrible compared to others with the same SSD. So I ran CrystalDiskmark and noticed the slow write speed, and some googling brought me here. As you can see from the attached file my write speed is quite terrible, even my "el cheapo" WD Blue SSD gives me a higher write speed than my expensive Corsair MP600. My system spec: Windows 10 Pro MSI MEG X570 Unify AMD Ryzen 9 3900X Palit RTX 2070 Super JetStream Corsair RM1000i PSU Corsair Hydro H115i RGB PRO XT AiO cooler Corsair Force MP600 NVMe Gen4 M.2 - 1TB WD Blue SN550 NVMe - 1TB Seagate BarraCuda Pro 3.5" - 10TB Is there any chance at all that this will be fixed by a firmware upgrade? (Seeing how long this has been going on my guess is no) I bought all my PC parts from a retailer in Norway, but I currently live in Singapore, so to RMA the MP600 in Norway is more than a bit troublesome, especially with the current Covid situation which prevents me from travelling. Could someone from Corsair please help me with an RMA for this? And I need an advance replacement please, so I can clone my drive to a replacement drive before shipping the old one back. This drive is a huge disappointment so if everything else fails, I'll just make a youtube video where I crush the MP600 with my replica of "Thor's hammer" while explaining exactly why I do that, and then move on to a Samsung 980 Pro. :evil:
