About Crystal Disk Mark
- Measure Sequential and Random Performance (Read/Write/Mix)
- Peak/Real World Performance Profile
From: Developer's Page
Moving on, Crystal Disk Mark 8.0 is our next benchmark. For 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.
Lexar has made maximum claims of 6500MB/s write and 7400MB/s read for the PLAY 2280 4TB. We normally see these peaks through Crystal Disk Mark, and from our results, you can see our unit comes near these numbers. In the sequential 8-queue results, the Lexar PLAY 2280 4TB peaked at 6524.52MB/s write and 7102.79MB/s read. This was the second fastest in both writing reading for the six drives compared. The sequential single queue results were slightly below average, ranking in the fifth for writing but third for reading. In the random 4K, 32-queue test, its write and read performance were the fastest and second fastest. Moving to the random 4K, single queue test, the PLAY 2280 4TB provided the third fastest write and fourth fastest read. You can make other comparisons from the graphs above.
