Micron 5100 MAX 1.92TB SATA SSD Review

ATTO & CrystalDiskMark

ATTO v4.01.0f1

ATTO is one of the oldest drive benchmarks still being used today and is still very relevant in the SSD world. ATTO measures transfers across a specific volume length. It measures raw transfer rates for both reads and writes and places the data into graphs that can be very easily interpreted. The test was run with the default runs of 0.5KB through 64MB transfer sizes with the total length being 256MB.

ATTO Disk Benchmark:

Benchmark Results: On ATTO Disk Benchmark we see that the Micron 5100 MAX 1.92 TB SSD reached speeds of up to 475.68 MB/s read and 461.26 MB/s write at a Queue Depth of 4. This drive is rated at reached speeds of up to 540 MB/s read and 520 MB/s write. We were never able to reach those scores on our AMD Ryzen powered test platform.

CrystalDiskMark 7.0.0 x64

CrystalDiskMark is a small benchmark utility for drives and enables rapid measurement of sequential and random read/write speeds.

CystalDiskMark:

Benchmark Results: The Micron 5100 MAX 1.92TB drive maxed out at 478 MB/s read and 485 MB/s write in the standard sequential write test that is done at Q8T1. Random 4K performance topped out at 48,700 IOPS read and 42,900 IOPS write.
