Hello!
I've been using Blackmagic Speed Test for a while now and have found it really useful.
Uptill now, I was using it successfully on my old 2009 Mac Pro tower, running on Sierra.
However, I now have a new Mac Pro (the Trashcan one), on which I've done a clean install of High Sierra and have downloaded BM ST again.
When I run it now, I get very strange results on all drives I test it on.
Whilst the Write speed looks like it might be reasonable, the Read speed goes completely off the scale, the latest one being 6459.6Mb/s, which seems very unlikely, considering the Read speed is only 167.2Mb/s!
This happens on any drive I test it on, whether it be an SSD in a USB 3.0 enclosure, or an external 3.5" HDD.
The first snapshot I've posted is the results on a USB Key - way off!!
I've tried changing the stress level and everything, but still the same results.
Can anyone advise? I haven't been able to find anything about this issue anywhere!
Many thanks
Matthew
