PCMark 8’s Consistency test provides a huge amount of performance data, so here we’ve looked a little closer at how the Samsung SSD970 Plus performs in each of the benchmarks test suites.

Adobe Creative Cloud

The drive handles the Adobe CC test suite quite well with no major dips in bandwidth during the test. The drive recovers very well in all the test traces.

Microsoft Office

The drive shows no real sign of stress during the MS Office part of the benchmark run. Even the MS Word trace, which usually is the one that hits drives hard, is dealt with very efficiently.

Casual Gaming

As with the MS Office tests, the casual gaming test suite is dealt with very well without any major alarms for either game test trace during the benchmark run.
