Pretty fast but a good example of why benchmarking software has no idea. Here's what Crystal Disk Mark says (and the photo shows the transfer of two video files in Windows 10 with an SSD source and this drive connected to a fast 3.0-compatible USB 3.0 port): Sequential Read (Q=32, T = 1): 102.911 MB/s Sequential Write (Q=32, T=1) : 97.646 MB/s Random Read 4 KB (Q=32, T=1) : 6.301 MB/s [1538.3 IOPS] Random Write 4 KB (Q=32 , T=1) : 0.262 MB/s [64.0 IOPS] Sequential Read (T=1) : 105.711 MB/s Sequential Write (T=1) : 87.028 MB/s 4 KB Random Read (Q=1, T=1) : 5.113 MB/s [1248.3 IOPS] 4 KB Random Write (Q=1, T=1): 0.231 MB/s [56.4 IOPS] Please see the photo the actual transfer - the speed drops to around 23 MB/s after 150 MB has been transferred .
