Samsung 980 Pro with Heatsink 1TB Review

Simon Crisp July 20, 2022 Featured Tech Reviews, Reviews, SSD Drives

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.

With these Sequential tests, we could confirm the official up to 7,000MB/s read and 5,000MB/s write figures. with the drive producing a peak read figure of 7,152.75MB/s (QD16) with writes peaking at 5,257.07MB/s (QD2).

128KB Sequential Read v QD performance comparison

The 980 Pro Heatsink version shadows the standard 980 Pro throughout our Sequential read QD testing.

128KB Sequential Write v QD performance comparison.

In our Sequential write tests, the Heatsink version of the drive leads the standard drive in QDs 1 and 2, but as the queue depth deepens the drives swap around with the standard 980 leading the way.
