When power is unplugged, file read/write speed is about 30MB/s consistently. When power is plugged, file read/write speed is about 400~500MB/s consistently. Used hdparm to check SSD status and found APM level is 128 on battery and 254 on power. Edited /etc/hdparm.conf to set apm_battery=254 and after reboot file read/write speed back to normal 400~500MB/s. Not sure if this is a feature or bug but on battery APM level 128 had caused SSD running ridiculously slow (~30MB/s).
