Today we received a new computer and tested a few hard drives for their speed, namely:
- Tested in a new Desktop PC with Ryzen 5, 64 GB RAM, Windows 10
- Samsung SSD 980 Pro (4th Gen M.2 SSD), 500 GB
- Samsung 970EVO Plus (M2. SSD), 2 TB
- Samsung 860 EVO (SATA3 SSD), 2 TB
- Seagate Ironwolf 256MB (SATA3 HDD), 10 TB
- Tested in a DELL XPS 13 laptop (3 years old), 16 GB RAM, Windows 10
- Intel SSD 660P (M.2 SSD), 2 TB
- Tested in a Lenovo T460s laptop (5 years old), 8 GB RAM, Windows 10
- Samsung 850 EVO Basic (SATA SSD), 1 TB
The write and speed performance differed notably according to CrystalDiskMark 8. We did all tests 5 times, and the results were always about the same.
