WD Black NVMe 3D and SanDisk Extreme PRO NVMe 3D 1TB SSD Review

AS SSD Benchmark

AS-SSD (2.0.6485.19676) Benchmark:

We have been running the AS-SSD Benchmark app for over some time now and found that it gives a broad result set.There are now three tests that are found within the tool and we’ll show the results from all three of them.

AS SSD – WD Black NVMe 1TB:

Benchmark Results: On AS SSD, the WD Black NVMe 1TB drive had an overall score of 4955 points with sequential read speeds of 2958 MB/s and 2650 MB/s write. The 4K random results were at 44 MB/s read and 142 MB/s write.

AS SSD Copy – WD Black NVMe 1TB:

Benchmark Results: The copy benchmark test results were ranging from 703 MB/s in the Program to 2081 MB/s in the ISO benchmark.

AS SSD Compression – WD Black NVMe 1TB:

Benchmark Results: For this benchmark chart you would ideally want to see a straight line as you dont want any compression performance loss as the test goes from 0% compressible to 100% compressible data during the benchmark test period. The WD Black NVMe 1TB drive gave us that solid flat line that we were looking for, but was pretty choppy on the write side. The good news is that performance seldom dropped below 2000 MB/s, so the overall write performance was still strong ranging from 1900 MB/s to 2850 MB/s.
