ASRock X99 WS-E/10G Motherboard Review

SSD Performance

The PNY SSDs live up to their billing for read performance, and exhibit the reduced write performance we usually see with CrystalDiskMark, due to the way it performs its write testing.

RAM Disk Performance

With sequential reads in excess of 5,000MB/sec and writes in excess of 9,000MB/sec, the RAM disk was not going to be a bottleneck during our networking tests, as this is at least four times the nominal line speed of 10Gbit Ethernet.

  1. I think for this much money it should have at least one USB 3.1 port. When I bought my first workstation motherboard around the time USB 3.0 was introduced, my board came with two. And it cost maybe half as much as this.

  2. I don’t think that USB 3.1 was readily available at time of release.

  5. Yes, they do need to do a USB 3.1 version, as Asus has done with some of its workstation boards. But otherwise there is little to fault on this board other than the price – and even that is mitigated when you look at just how expensive 10Gbit Ethernet NICs are.

  6. That’s actually a good point. USB 3.1 wasn’t readily available until last year and this motherboard was announced in 2014. Guess I assumed this was a new release…after all, what is the point of reviewing a year-old motherboard? LOL

  7. Yeah 10Gb has to be making up the bulk of that price. I hope the leap in SSD technology supposedly coming i.e. Optane helps drive a push for 10Gb becoming the standard that 1Gb has become.

  9. Yes, it’s ludicrously quick as my tests showed!
