About HD Tune Pro 5.70
HD Tune Pro is a hard disk / SSD utility with many functions. It can be used to measure the drive's performance, scan for errors, check the health status (S.M.A.R.T.), securely erase all data and much more.

Unfortunately, HD Tune does not generate any fancy independent graph outputs in particular, so I just took a screenshot of the program. The WD_BLACK SN770 NVMe SSD 1TB's throughput remained very flat on average. While HD Tune is more of a drag race than a clear indication of real-life performance, it is an excellent storage performance reference among SSDs with the same controller. The results were slower than expected across the range, but the recorded access time was low, as we would expect from a solid state drive.
The SN770 1TB posted an average of 1317.5MB/s for its sequential read speed, which was much slower than the XPG Atom 50 1TB at 2654.3MB/s and Crucial P5 Plus 1TB at 2018.0MB/s, both budget drives. This goes without saying the SN770 was much slower than performance PCIe 4.0-based drives. The WD_BLACK SN850 NVMe SSD 1TB scored 2366.0MB/s, Gammix S70 Blade 1TB posted an average of 2662.4MB/s. and the Kingston KC3000 1TB delivered 2581.8MB/s. At the end of the day, HD Tune may not be the best test for solid state drives all the time, but these results are always interesting to look at.
