So I should go for the faster one since power consumption and money is not an issue, i like that the faster one has better random r/w speed, it should come in handy as I'm doing big database queries. Thank you all, I'll be ordering the Samsung one today.

I currently have this SSD https://ssd.userbenchmark.com/SpeedTest/174249/SAMSUNG-MZVLW256HEHP-00000 and I want to buy one of those 2 https://ssd.userbenchmark.com/Compare/WD-Black-NVMe-PCIe-M2-500GB-2018-vs-Samsung-970-Evo-Plus-NVMe-PCIe-M2-500GB/m485459vsm700020 I would like to buy the faster...

It seems like after all it was not an autosuspend issue since the next day I encountered the same issue, today I bought an USB 3.0 Hub with a 2A external power supply but after a few GB I get the same problem of exactly 1 MiB/s write speed (viewed by "iostat -xhdm 2 /dev/sdb " instead of iotop...

I solved the problem and cant believe how simple it was... Just needed to disable USB autosuspend using the powertop command, Now it transfers data in Linux without any problems too, will test it tomorrow more thoroughly by transferring big amounts of data just to make sure Theres still the...

I can confirm this is a Linux issue. I connected the drive and run an extended test (on ubuntu), when it was done the speed benchark was somewhat ok (~80 MB/s) Then I went into Windows 10 and run the same transfer again and it finished successfully with normal speed (except on small files of...

Hello, I have a strange problem with any new (probably any) HDD I buy. Here is my hardware and software: Laptop: Thinkpad T470 Main OS: Ubuntu MATE 16.04.02 Rarely Used OS: Windows 10 Since my old disk is failing (320GB) with bad sectors, I decided to buy a new hybrid one (Seagate...

Can this processor work at 15W TDP with turning off half the cores and decreasing the frequency. If yes, will it be slower than i7-7500U if running at 15W TDP and by how much %. I'm trying to decide whether to buy a t470(256GB SSD, i7-7500U, intel 620 GPU) or t470p(500SSD, i7-7700HQ, nvidia...
