Very Fast: Computers and Accessories

When I was able to get 2TB for $200, I finally decided to do something. I'm migrating from a very expensive and power hungry Adaptec RAID configuration with 8 old 2.5" SSDs to Stripe 0 configuration. The thing is faster and about the size of a chewing gum. That. I found the exact same speed measurement tool and ran the same test. You can compare the results and draw your own conclusions. This was on a very early first generation 16X Threadripper with an Asus Prime X399 board. It's fast enough for my purposes and it's hard to think of a scenario/application/project that would require faster speed. But I believe that speed is in the eye of the beholder. Certainly not as fast as the top-of-the-line Samsung, but I'm sure I'll win. I don't know the difference. As mentioned in another review, it didn't come with a screw. It sounds insignificant, but despite having a drawer full of computer screws that I've collected over the years, I didn't have a single screw, which was the first of these types of drives I'd come across. red, and the threads are much smaller than anything I've usually seen before. To be honest, I could also blame the motherboard company for not providing the screws.
