The Crystal Disk Mark benchmark can be used to see if the claimed read and write speeds of the manufacturer are up to task. Higher capacity drives tend to perform quite well in these tests. This test will allow us to know if the claims of 1050 MB/s read and write for the Crucial X9 Pro 2TB are accurate.

The Crucial X9 Pro came pretty close to the claimed read and write speeds. In the first graph, you can see the write and read speeds coming in at 940MB/s and 995MB/s, respectively, which is comparable to the X8. The X8 has the same sequential read and write specification as the X9 Pro, so these results are expected. For the random read and write tests, the Crucial X8 was better than the X9 Pro. In this case, the X9 Pro 2TB was more comparable to the X10 Pro, meaning it performed in much the same category as many of the other drives on the above list.
