Gigabyte AORUS Gen5 10000 2TB SSD



In our read-throughput tests, the 2TB AORUS Gen5 10000 peaked at the 1MB block mark at 7,611MB/s, a good deal short of the maximum official figure of 10,000MB/s. After the 1MB mark, the performance of the drive drops considerably but it recovers quickly to finish the test run at 7,496MB/s.


Even though that peak read result of 7,611MB/s is nowhere near the official maximum figure. it's still good to enough to place the drive in top spot in our results chart by some distance.


During the write throughput test, the drive peaked at 10,001MB/s (8MB block) before finishing the test run down slightly at 9,809MB/s. Both figures are faster than the official maximum of 9,500MB/s.


It comes as no surprise to find the tested peak write result puts the drive on the top of the results chart
