Used this SSD since 2015 in a build that was given to me, used it as a boot drive and at the time it worked great. Now I'm using it for the last time as a storage drive on my current system, I will be upgrading to a much faster one by the beginning of the new year. Seq Q32T1 [Read] 105.6 MB/s & [Write] 106.1 MB/s 4Kib Q8T8 [Read] 0.596 MB/s & [Write] 0.692 MB/s 4Kib Q32T1 [Read] 0.612 MB/s [Write] 0.660 MB/s 4Kib Q1T1 [Read] 0.312 MB/s & [Write] 0.664 MB/s As you could imagine the rest are quite slow once you compare them to reviews and benchmarks of this particular SSD that is brand new. At the end of the day if this is one your looking at getting AVOID, by today's standards the poor thing is slow and for me it didn't age well, (like myself) if you like me, already have one UPGRADE you'll thank yourself later when you are able to load into application quicker whether that be your OS or a video game.

One of the faster hard drives out there.


Average

Could be quite a bit better, but on the other hand significantly worse. It's a hard drive. It is noticeably slower than popular desktop drives, but does what it needs to.

Excellent

A really good Laptop HDD, not that slow like most HDDs.

 Frequently Asked Questions

 Best User Rated

Why does UserBenchmark have a bad reputation on reddit?
Marketers operate thousands of reddit accounts. Our benchmarks expose their spiel so they attack our reputation.
Why don’t PC brands endorse UserBenchmark?
Brands make boatloads on flagships like the 4090 and 14900KS. We help users get similar real-world performance for less money.
Why don’t youtubers promote UserBenchmark?
We don't pay youtubers, so they don't praise us. Moreover, our data obstructs youtubers who promote overpriced or inferior products.
Why does UserBenchmark have negative trustpilot reviews?
The 200+ trustpilot reviews are mostly written by virgin marketing accounts. Real users don't give a monkey's about big brands.
Why is UserBenchmark popular with users?
Instead of pursuing brands for sponsorship, we've spent 13 years publishing real-world data for users.
