In our read-throughput test, the drive peaked at the 8MB block mark at 5,893.25MB/s before finishing the test run with a slightly slower 5,829.58MB/s. Both of these figures however are not close to the official maximum figure of 7,400MB/s.

 

The peak read figure of 5,893.25MB/s sees it sitting in sixth place in the results chart, making it the second fastest Gen4 drive in this test after Lexar's NM790.

 

In the write throughput tests, the drive peaked at the end of the test run at 6,340.36MB/s. As with the read result, this is some way off the official maximum rating of 7.000MB/s.

 

The test result of 6,340MB/s makes the drive the fastest Gen4 drive we have seen in this particular test to date.
