Improving throughput stability for Zhitai TiPro9000 1TB?
The loading screen would just hang at 90% for ages, and that kind of lag is absolutely jarring in a fast-paced shooter. I noticed the Zhitai TiPro9000 1TB had abnormal random read jumps between 85-112ns, which basically broke the game's asset streaming. I tried formatting the partition and changing the cluster size to 64KB, but it didn't help at all and actually corrupted some of my save files—that was a huge setback. I ended up installing the latest official firmware and forced the write cache flushing in Device Manager, while switching my power plan to High Performance. In AIDA64 storage tests, random reads climbed from 62MB/s to a stable 84-91MB/s, and map load times dropped from 25 seconds down to 12. I did have a brief moment where the system wouldn't recognize the drive after the update, but a CMOS clear fixed it. Temps are now hovering between 42-51℃ with a smooth R/W curve. I ran a disk check tool to confirm the file system is clean, and the read/write failure is officially gone.
