SSD Performance Real World File Copy Tests

SSD Performance

In this round of benchmarks, we start off with our real-world file copy tests. Currently, certain controllers benefit from compressed files, while others don't. Certain storage units hate small files, others work well with them. So it only makes sense to do some manual tests on that.

File Copy

The most basic and simple test anyone can perform. We drop a 110 GB compressed file onto the SSD. That write number will fluctuate a bit here and there during the writing process. Let's have a peek:

As you can see, we write at ~1.8 GB/sec here, there's no QLC write hole to be detected. And that is very impressive to see. mind you that initially. Copying the 110 GB file towards a client drive is good, but here the SSD runs into a buffer issue as you can see on the client SSD. That has nothing to do with this SSD.
