I would like to suggest that you add one of the new faster M.2 PCIe x4 SSD's for your project files and media. You could get by with a standard SATA III SSD it will get you off those lousy hard disk drives with their millisecond access times (SSD's have microsecond access times) and the hard disk drives lousy slow down as the drives fill up. Also is anything stopping you from reinstalling that GTX 1060?
Your new scores are good but since I have no problem on my laptop editing XAVC-S 100 Mbit/se

What recording mode did you set in the RX100 V?
Here is the MediaInfo Tree view of my XAVC-S which works beautifully in Premiere, what does yours look like?
Forget the arrow
Hi, looking at the image below it doesn't look too different from yours?
Unless you can spot something I can't
Thanks
I've changed back to my old graphic cards which are 2 x 7950. I had to disable crossfire because the final test would not run with it enabled.
I also ran this test from my mechanical disk and not ssd.
I guess I can safely say its not the graphics cards causing the issue as I've had a gtx 1060 and then these installed at different times.
The results are:
1) disk i/o time = 172908 which is 0.21 MB/second
2) encode h.264 = 118 seconds
3) mpe gain 421/172659=0
Can someone tell me what these mean?
Thanks

Your new scores are good but since I have no problem on my laptop editing XAVC-S 100 Mbit/second media on my slower, 4-core laptop which has two good SATA III SSD"s I think you should make an upgrade to a second SSD and while you are at it go for the higher performance M.2 PCIe x4 like a Samsung 960 EVO of a size to handle your larger projects. When you finish a project move the old projects to your harddisk drives and make room for the new one.
Another idea that I use is to get a portable SSD USB3.1 drive and plug it into one of your USB 3.1 ports and have your projects and media on it (here is my Samsung T5 500 GB). I can use this on my laptop to do my initial editing and then unplug it and almost instantly finish editing on my desktop. They are available up to 2 TB if you really have large projects
What is important for video editing are those Sequential transfer rates.
My desktop did not have a USB 3.1 interface.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I transferred my media to the SSD and I let premier pro locate the files and I was still receiving the same problem. Was this the correct procedure to do or would I need to re import the files. I have done the disk crystal disk mark, Is my SSD really too slow to handle my media? Do you have your lapto 2x ssd set in raid?
I was testing my friends gtx 1060 with an option to buy it but because it didn't solve the problem I decided the money would be better spent on something that would fix it.
Appreciate your time!
Guess what CrystalDisk Market did it to me with that new version They removed the true sequential category. But you can still use the Seq Q32T1 on the new version to check SSD performance. But using it in any mechanical rotating disk drive it is misleading because they are only testing the fastest part of the disk drive. Here is a real test of the a hard disk drive showing the siginificant slow dwon as the disk fills up.

1.. No your SSD is not to slow but you really need a minimum of two SSD's One for your OS/Applications and one for all your project files and media if they are SATA III SSD's. Forget about hard disk drives execpt for backup and archiving.
2. Absolutely no RAID
So I installed a Samsung sm961 m.2 drive. I would say there is around a 50% improvement. Its till not smooth and still little jerky but better than it was before and I think I'll be able to edit. Those rx100 files must be a lot more stressing than the gopro files. I re-run the tests and uploaded them to the website.
Thoughts?
