Da, evo iz recenzije novog 3d nand ssd-a (isto micron/intel kao i mx300) - adata su800

Taking A Look At Sustained Write Performance

Triple-Level Cell TLC NAND based SSDs perform usually quite well, but when you copy a large amount of data to the drive without and idle time you’ll often find a large drop in write speed. TLC NAND is great in applications where write operations are limited , but is usually not recommended for critical systems that have heavy write operations as they have lower endurance ratings than SLC or MLC NAND and of course sustained write performance isn’t stellar. In recent years drive manufactures have been figured out that by using SLC or TLC treated as SLC as a cache they can keep the drives overall write performance high as long as the amount of data being written to the drive fits in the cache. If you overflow the cache, you are then writing directly to the TLC NAND and the write performance will drop down to that level. It should be noted that the SLC cache will clear once the drive idles, so this only impacts long writes that are many GB in size. This might not be a typical workload scenario for this ultra-value or mainstream drives, but still something worth pointing out!

When you average the test results over the 45 second period that we are focusing on these are the average speeds that you come up with:

• Samsung SSD 850 EVO 500GB – 527.23 MB/s
• Crucial MX300 750GB SSD – 522.4 MB/s
• ADATA SU800 512GB SSD – 520.85 MB/s
• Toshiba OCZ VX500 512GB SSD – 520.41 MB/s
• Toshiba OCZ Trion 150 480GB – 347.75 MB/s
• Kingston UV400 480GB – 267.04 MB/s
• OCZ Trion 100 480GB – 192.19 MB/s
• ADATA Sp550 480GB SSD – 103.53 MB/s
