Second Drive Kit = Slow Drive
Hello, I installed a second internal drive on my Mac Mini using the iFixit kit (late 2012 model), and all is well... or so I thought. I just ran the Blackmagic Disk Speed Test and discovered that I am getting a maximum Read speed of 5MB/s. This is pitifully slow.
The drive in question came out of a 2014 iMac, and it performed flawlessly inside that machine, so I have no reason to believe the drive is bad.
Could it be the SATA cable I got in the iFixit kit? Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks.
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Isn't an iMac drive a 3.5" drive?

Oh, maybe? I have six machines and I swap drives a lot so I could be confused by the drives origin. However, it functions normally, Disk Utikity finds nothing wrong with it, but BM speed test shows painfully slow results. I suspect that Black Magic may just be wrong.

Can you give us the make and model of the drive in question as well as what is the OS release you are using.

Not sure how to find the make and model but System Information has the Media Name as "APPLE HDD HTS541010A9E662 Media". I know that Apple doesn't make drives so I'm guessing that's not it. If there's a way to get that please let me know.
OS is El Capitan 10.11.1.
