Even though I had been saving up money, I made the decision to purchase 1 TB. (all the more so because I saw a review on 3dnews, where they simply mentioned / showed that there are no better solutions (as of January 2022.

Therefore, I am astonished, to put it very delicately. The results from CristalMarkDisk reveal speeds of more than 3,300 MB/s (for reading, which is somewhat higher than for writing). conceivably (didn't test it and didn't see it in action), of course - and WD isn't much worse; nonetheless, the Samsung Evo Plus is quite productive. Please see attached a few screenshots. And this isn't even happening on a particularly modern or efficient computer. (i7-6700K + MSI Z170A KRAIT GAMING)
