SK hynix SE3010 960GB Review

To test real life performance of a drive we use a mix of folder/file types and by using the FastCopy utility (which gives a time as well as MB/s result) we record the performance of drive reading from & writing to a 256GB Samsung SSD850 PRO.

60GB Steam folder – 29,521 files
50GB File folder – 28,523 files
12GB Movie folder – 24 files (mix of Blu-ray and 4K files)
10GB Photo folder – 621 files (mix of .png, raw and .jpeg images)
10GB Audio folder – 1,483 files (mix of mp3 and .flac files)

The SE3010 deals with real life file transfers very well averaging over 400MB/s. When its dealing with the large files of the movie, photo and audio folders its focus on reads is clearly seen. However when it comes to dealing with lots of small files e.g. the 50GB file folder, the read performance backs off.
