Crucial P310 2280 2TB SSD Review

We used CrystalDiskMark 8‘s custom settings to test the Sequential read and write performance of the drive through a range of queue depths. The setup for the tests is listed below.

128KB Sequential Read / Write.

Transfer Request Size: 128KB, Thread(s): 1, Outstanding I/O: 1-32.

In this test, we can confirm the official maximum Sequential read of 7,100MB/s with a test result of 7,174MB/s. When it came to write performance the drive did a little better, producing a peak figure of 6,321MB/s (QD8), 321MB/s faster than the official maximum before dropping back a little to finish the test run at 6,317MB/s (QD32).

128KB Sequential Read performance compared.

The drive sits in the bottom half of the read result chart through all the tested queue depths. Compared to the drives around it, the best performance seems to come at QD4.

128KB Sequential Write performance compared.

As with the Sequential read results the write performance sees the drive in the bottom half of the table with the best performance coming at QD1.
