The speed is slower on the SSD after being in your computer because of the motherboard, not the drive. The older motherboards can only give so much bandwidth, whereas you need a m.2 slot or PCIE x4 slot to run it at full bandwidth. If you were to take that and put it into a PC with a moderately higher their motherboard it would likely achieve at least similar to advertised speeds.

I just upgraded the drive and memory in my macbook pro 2019. our company makes adapters for nvme and it is a good idea if you know what you are doing and have the equipment to change the drive controller on the logic board as well as some of the capacitors and resistors to jump the voltage for the controller from 3.45v to 3.75v. this will give you the top speed of your drive. you can upgrade the 3d nand on new macs but you need to know component level repair.
