what's wrong with your drive, looks okay to me, that's the max speed you can get for a SSD SATA III drive

Check with Plextool instead. SMART a lot of things cannot tell you.

Does not include write amplification.

Also a 3k endurance MLC has as much endurance as a 3k endurance TLC

It's the same thing as which is heavier: A kilogram of feathers or a kilogram of steel

Slow loading could be a sign of faulty ssd. My almost dying nvme ssd made loading into windows like take 30-50s instead of 10s. Once removed, it worked normally.
