Performance – Single SSD
The performance has been tested on the AMD Ryzen platform that contains the Ryzen 9 7950X, 16-core processor, ASUS Crosshair X670E Gene motherboard, ADATA Lancer Mera Edition 32GB DDR5-7200@6200 memory kit, and Acer Predator GM7000 2TB M.2 SSD with installed Win11 Pro x64. All tests were performed on VP4300 Lite 2TB SSDs, single and RAID mode.
Let’s begin as usual with the ATTO Disk Benchmark.
Results in ATTO benchmarks are always slightly lower than expected, so we are glad to see nearly 7GB/s maximum read and 6.12GB/s maximum write.
CrystalDiskMark shows what we wanted to see. Our sequential bandwidth results are slightly higher than the specified by Patriot, so about 7.43GB/s read and 6.58GB/s write. These results are exceptional for any PCIe 4.0 SSD.
In PCMark 10, the results are pretty high. Maybe not the highest we’ve seen but at the respectable level matching high SSD series with DRAM.
The same in 3DMark Storage Benchmark; we can see the high performance, only a little shy of the top PCIe 4.0 SSD series.
Anvil’s Storage Utilities is a rather old benchmark but is still popular. This benchmark usually shows lower results than the ATTO or the CrystalDiskMark. It doesn’t change the fact that the results are pretty high.
In the end, the AIDA64 Disk Benchmark results in random read and write operations.
Both random bandwidth tests are similar to what we could see in our TEAMGROUP MP44 review from the last week. Both SSDs use the same controller, and both perform at about 2GB/s random read and write in the AIDA64 benchmark. The Patriot option is right now cheaper and easier available.
Thermal throttling is not happening on Maxio-based SSD, so also, the VP4300 Lite was far from the throttling point. I will only repeat what I said before. The VP4300 Lite reached 49°C during extended tests like AIDA64 tests that take over 40 minutes each.
It’s hard not to like the VP4300 Lite as it combines everything that is important in modern SSD.
On the next page, we will take a look at results in RAID 0, so an option to speed up the performance even more.
