How many write speed and read speed should a fast ssd be?

[nathanpark3r]

Im about to buy a ssd. What should the write and read speed be? 450mb/s or above 500mb/s?

The major ones will do 5 gigabit R/W. The cheaper ones maybe 5/2 R/W.

decent 1s 500MBps r/w cheaper 1s 400-500 read, 200-300 MBps write

Is a 450 mb/s read and write ssd fast?

 

[HEXiT]

not particularly but its up there.
sata 3 tops out at a theoretical 600MBps.
manufacturers tend to max out there drives to 500MBps and leave about 100MBps bandwidth for overheads.
so 450 is pretty decent. not the best but way faster than a mechanical drive.

my pcie ssd only has 2400 mb read and 1200 mb write its too slow and it ONLY has 1.2 tb such a low capacity
