Post your CrystalDiskMark speeds

How can you install it ?
I have Lenovo S30 and i didn't found any tutorials
(Intel dc p3600)
It was in a u.2 to pcie adapter, works like a standard nvme drive. I only use as a secondary drive, not booting OS. It is not a sata/sas drive.
 
Samsung 970 PRO 1 TB NVME SSD without a heatsink. One day I will add heatsinks on controller/ram and post results again if they are different by a wide margin.

This is a raid 0 of two 4TB sn850xs. Probably nothing too crazy to those with gen 5. Buts crazy to me. It was able to duplicate a 40GB folder without even a dialogue box popping up. It was like it was instant. But no... I wont keep in raid 0, as tempting as it is.

Testing out my new 7950x w/ Asrock B650 LiveMixer (running in ECO mode 105w)

Other Tests Below
  • Left Picture:
    • 5950x, x570 Taichi Razor (2nd PCIe Slot)
  • Right Picture:
    • 7950x (ECO mode 105w), B650 LiveMixer (1st PCIe Slot)
  • Last Picture:
    • 5950x, x570 Taichi Original (2nd PCIe Slot)

I was trying to figure out if something was wrong with my Optane because on my original Taichi RnD4K Q32T16 was tanking badly into the 1000's for some reason.
So the Optane is fine per the tests above but something about my original Taichi is tanking performance.

How man doing this BM realise there is an option to run NVME as opposed to SSD in this app? if you run the app at default, it will be on SSD & yes, there is a difference in results. If your using M.2 NVME drives run with NVME... :)

A lot of posts in this thread do not indicate this.

Just for fun 199GB/s! Theoretically I can get up to 400GB/s, but I have to make changes in BIOS. :D

Pretty cool! :)

Is it a dual AMD EPYC 9654 setup? This motherboard now supports DDR5 speeds up to 6400 (requires manual adjustment in the BIOS settings).
The memory bandwidth of DDR5 4800 MT/s per socket is 460.8 GB/s (in your case, it will be 2× 488.54 GB/s).
However, regardless of your memory bandwidth, you won't be able to achieve such results in CrystalDiskMark for one simple reason – the application can only utilize up to 64 threads, while you have 192!

Small update, this time 214GB/s! :D

this sounds too good to be true for a budget SSD, numbers suggest performance and consistency level of 860 pro. I quite impressed and satisfied too.

These tests were performed with my 5950x 128GB ECC RAM CL22. Just going to leave this here.

This is my Fanxiang S101 1TB SATA I got for $40, presumably with all-Chinese TLC and controller:

Best numbers I ever saw for an SATA SSD on a USB3->SATA converter.
Technically it has 5 year warranty, but I'm not expecting MX500 levels of reliability though.

yours is like 8$ cheaper than mine, did you buy from aliexpress? the one i bought is probably the cheapest SSD you can buy online in India (aliexpress is banned here), several months ago, it was priced same as yours even at that time i thought of buying it but my brother didn't let me. Now as i got it as a birthday gift i am quite satisfied with it because also it's write limit is quite high (like 6000TBW).

Does your SSD has an official tool or firmware updates?

I bought it from Shopee shipped from Malaysia with discount coupons.

As for firmware or utilities...Sorry not sure, never checked.

Oh BTW that USB3 to SATA adaptor cost me only $2. (lol)
 
without casing?

Yes, I'm only using this getup as a rarely-used external drive to shuffle large amount of files from my Android phones and my PC.

i got a type c one with transparent casing for less than 5 bucks
 
I'm using a Crucial T705 PCIe 5.0 M.2.
