Test Bench
For our tests, we used our latest test rig, which is comprised of the following components.
CPU | AMD Ryzen 7 3700X @ 3.6GHz (Boost 4.4GHz) |
Cooling | Cooler Master Master Liquid 240 AIO |
Motherboard | ASRock X570 Phantom Gaming X |
Ram | GEIL Super Luce RGB DDR4-3000MHz 16Gb Kit |
PSU | Cooler Master V850 PSU |
GPU | Zotac GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER (6GB GDDR6) |
SSD |
TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB SSD 500GB |
AIDA64 Disk Information
The TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB SSD uses Silicon Motion SM2258 controller, supporting and comes with a total capacity of 500GB of 3D TLC NAND flash memory
Load Temps
Full load temps reach a high of 53 degrees Celisus, which isn’t too bad and the drive to be able to cope with no issues.
CrystalDiskMark
CrystalDiskMark is a disk benchmark software.It measure sequential reads/writes speed,measure random 512KB, 4KB, 4KB (Queue Depth=32) reads/writes speed, select test data (Random, 0Fill, 1Fill), provide theme support and Multi-Language support.
During our CrystalDiskMark tests, we managed to get an excellent read speed of 553 MB/sec, which is extremely good considering the maximum stated speed is 560 MB/s. Writes speeds reached a high of between 481-477 MB/sec, which falls in line with our expectations.
ATTO Disk Benchmark
ATTO has created a widely-accepted Disk Benchmark freeware software to help measure storage system performance. As one of the top tools utilized in the industry, Disk Benchmark identifies performance in hard drives, solid state drives, RAID arrays as well as the host connection to attached storage.
Anvil Storage
Anvil’s Storage Utilities is a powerful tool that was designed in order to provide you with a simple means of assessing the read and writer performance of your Solid State Drive or Hard Disk Drive.
During our Anvil tests, we managed to get a 4K QTD16 Read IOPS score of 54,381.84. While 4K QTD16 write IOPS score was at 45,473.96 which again falls within our expectations for a SATA SSD.
