Corsair Neutron XTi 480GB review

Simon Crisp July 13, 2016 Featured Announcement, Reviews, SSD Drives

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).

real life
The drive seems to handle large file sizes much better than small bity files particularly when it comes to reading them. This can be seen with the read figures for both the 50GB file and the 60GB Steam folder as compared to the larger media file transfers.

    How do you not have the Samsung 850 EVO/PRO in any of your comparison charts? The 850 is the “go-to” SSD in terms of being the best all around, so the fact that you do not compare the Corsair XTi to the Samsung 850, means that your review is essentially worthless, as now I have to look elsewhere for a review that DOES include the 850 for comparison.
