Default Do SSD's lose performance as they age?

My oldest SATA SSD (which is also my boot drive) is not showing the same
kind of performance it did when it was new. I only discovered it
recently after buying a new secondary SATA SSD, which I benchmarked, and
then as a comparison I compared it against the older one. The new one is
showing a peak sequential read of 456 MB/s and a write of 450 MB/s. But
the older one is only showing 210 MB/s & 160 MB/s respectively; it used
to show performance more comparable to the newer drive when it was new.
It sounds like this drive has downgraded itself from SATA-3 down to
SATA-2. Is there a way to see if a drive is running in either SATA-2 or
-3 mode? All of my SATA ports are supposed to be SATA-3 capable.
