Question Seagate FireCuda 520 SSD Disk Speed Test Up and Down

[qy2009]

Hi,

I just bought Seagate FireCuda 520 SSD and ran a disk speed. From the test, the speed was up and down. Does it mean it's a bad SSD? I have tried my another two SSD, and they both have almost straight lines.

thanks

Tough to evaluate that graph.

Can you use another benchmark program?

Such as Crystal Disk Mark or Atto or AS or Anvil.

It's related to cache and how it's used with different test file sizes.

thanks ! I actually did some stupid test, I copy lots of small photos to that drive, and test this one with my SK Hynix 2TB SSD drive. and I can see that SK Hynix has the flat straight line compared with this one, and the time to copy and view photos are much faster.
