KIOXIA Exceria Plus G4 Gen5 2TB SSD Review – Low Power Gen5 SSD with Decent Speeds

PCMARK 10 FULL SYSTEM STORAGE BENCHMARK

PCMark 10 Storage Benchmarks produce an overall score as a measure of drive performance. Comparing devices is as simple as comparing scores. The tests also measure and report the bandwidth and average access time performance for the drive. Each test uses traces recorded while performing real-world tasks such as booting Windows 10, starting applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, working with applications such as Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, and copying several large files and many small files.

This is not the Top 10 of the results but, as you can see, KIOXIA ExceriaPlus G4 did very well, especially when comparing it the Crucial P510 and Corsair MP700 Elite, both other SSDs with that same Phison E31T Gen5 DRAMless SSD controller
