Amazing R/W sequence but random 4k only works at medium level Installed in PCIe adapter (Sintech) Price for this NVME from SP is the cheapest among all other brands that can handle speeds over 3000MB/s. I think people classify those >3000MB/s as higher level NVME like 970, BPX, SX8200, S70, SN750, 760P etc. while those that do 2000MB/s as NVME more low end like P1 , EX900, etc. Don't get me wrong, all of these higher/low-end NVMEs are on my Revain wish list. I read all the reviews to compare. By the way, I ordered the P1 and it's on its way. If P1 can perform better in Random 4K, I can replace that with SP.UPDATE Apr 17, 2019: After decisively trying P1, yes Random 4K is better (10MB/s more). However, the heat of P1 makes me uncomfortable) Standby: SP is only 22 degrees and P1 is already 30+ degrees. Heavy load: The maximum value of SP is about 44 degrees, but P1 reaches the red zone, 58 degrees. All of these temperatures are read from the crystal disk. Both SP and P1 are installed on the same adapter with heatsink (made by Sintech). So in the end I'll stick with SP. The first photo attached earlier reads CDM without BitLocker. The second photo reads the CDM with BitLocker and I can also see the temperature behind it.
