Are you using a computer with a solid state drive instead of a spinning hard drive? Because that would definitely cause a problem. Your internet connection speed could be the problem. Or are you doing the connection sync over a tor?

Dowoading to 7200 RPM Enterprise drives

Using fast vpn, not tor

Why are spinning disks faster for monerod?

shortwavesurfer2009 1y ago

They are not. That's where the problem is. An SSD is pretty much a requirement.

There's your problem and SSD is pretty much a requirement in order to get fast synchronization.
