I switched from an SSD to this hard drive... it's futuristic!
the speed tested on a 16GB file is 2744MO/s writing and 2960MO/s reading
that's just phenomenal.
coupled with a USB-C 3 gen 2 key, I'm getting speeds of 900 MB/s write and 970 MB/s read.
It sounds unreal, but it's true!
I'm doing a summary, I never exceed 50 degrees (CPU, CGU, SSD, RAM) in ultra whether on the latest games of 2023 or older games, no lag, always at least 60fps in ultra 4k, cooling impeccable. I can only recommend all the following components:
- Intel Core i5-14600KF (3.5 GHz / 5.3 GHz)
- be quiet! Dark Rock 4
- ASUS TUF GAMING B760-PLUS WIFI
- Corsair Vengeance DDR5 32 GB ,
- ASUS ProArt GeForce RTX 4070 Ti
- MSI MPG A850G PCIE5
- Fractal Design Meshify 2 Lite TG (Black)
Very good SSD. Measured write speed: 3GB/s (announced 4) and very stable. Only the last few GB are written more slowly. I would recommend it.
