Sounds like a driver issue... do you have the correct / latest drivers installed?

What OS? Was this a clean install? BIOS up to date?

looked in Device Manager to make sure there are no yellow flags?

I know if the chipset driver doesnt install or the wrong one is install you will get really slow transfer speed on any hard drive activity.
