Page 5 - Benchmark: Crystal Disk Mark 8.0
About Crystal Disk Mark
- Measure Sequential and Random Performance (Read/Write/Mix)
- Peak/Real World Performance Profile
From: Developer's Page
Crystal Disk Mark 8.0 is in the spotlight. Just a bit of background information, higher capacity drives tend to perform a little better in these tests. The ability of a controller and flash memory to deliver high IOPS will provide huge benefits to the score as well. As manufacturer peak read and write performance ratings are usually achievable using Crystal Disk Mark, whether a drive lives up to its marketing claims or not can be validated by this program.
Crucial claims the P3 Plus 1TB's maximum read and maximum write are pinned at 5000MB/s and 3600MB/s, respectively. Looking at the read and write results, the P3 Plus 1TB was the slowest drive in the sequential read and write sections against other PCIe 4.0 NVMe drives, but this was to be expected, as the tested numbers were pretty much bang on compared to the specifications. However, the Crucial P3 Plus 1TB delivered solid performance against other SSDs in the series of RND4K tests. In many cases, it was significantly better than the P5 Plus 1TB. I will let you make your own comparisons in our list of NVMe SSDs in the graphs above.
