Sandisk WD_Black SN8100 2TB Gen 5 SSD Review

The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage system's performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customise your performance measurement, including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously. Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturer's RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage. ATTO uses RAW or compressible data.

We are using version 4.1 for our NVMe disk tests with a set length of 256mb and test both the read and write performance.

Using the ATTO benchmark, the best Sequential performance we saw from the drive was 13,940MB/s for reads and 13,150MB/s for writes, both well short of the official up to 14,900MB/s and 14,000MB/s for reads and writes, respectively. However, while short of the official ratings, the drive still sits in top spot on the results table, sharing the spotlight on read performance with Biwin's 2TB Black Opal X570 drive. The WD_Black drive, however, has much faster write performance.
