Hi,
I just installed a brand new Samsung 256GB EVO Pro SSD into a system and installed on the drive is Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit. (8GB of RAM - Desktop PC)
The system is running smoothly, however, when the PC enters sleep mode things change. It enters sleep mode just fine, but when resuming sleep mode everything is very slow and sluggish.
The mouse and keyboard fail to function unless I turn one of them off and back on again, then I receive a Windows error saying that have stopped working.
You cannot browse the internet, it basically never gets to finish. Then to make matters worse, once the PC is out of sleep mode and you try to restart, it just sits at the restart screen for over five minutes.
Everything is fully up-to-date, including the SSD firmware. SFC did not find any errors.
I believe this is a Windows based issue as the SSD is lightening fast when operating in normal mode, before it falls asleep.

Only thing is that is for a Mac, I'm on Windows.
There is an older hard drive that is also in the PC as a storage drive that runs on the Marvell SATA ports.
Edit: Here's something I just noticed. After coming out of sleep mode, the secondary hard drive is pinned at 100% and you cannot access the drive. Could this hang the restarting process? Any reason its running at 100%?
