Hi there everyone
I'm currently working on my dream build PC and want it to be reasonably fast. (Ideal scenario is able to record guitar and have a few effects applied without causing noticeable delay to output speakers)
I'm looking around on newegg to get a sense of things and thought that looking for higher read and write speeds would help with speed performance but looking at the Seagate BarraCuda 510
which has listed specs as
Max Sequential Read - Up to 3400 MBps
Max Sequential Write - Up to 3000 MBps
but there are multiple reviews saying that it isn't so great performance wise compared to the SAMSUNG 970 EVO
but looking at the specs for that it says
Max Sequential Read - Up to 3400 MBps
Max Sequential Write - Up to 2500 MBps
which is only the same for read speed and even slower in the write speed.
What am I missing here?
Wisdom tells me to go with user reviews, but logic tells me to go for the higher listed specs. I'm hoping someone can help me find the logic behind their comments and resolve the battle.
