PCMARK 10 FULL SYSTEM STORAGE BENCHMARK
PCMark 10 Storage Benchmarks produce an overall score as a measure of drive performance. Comparing devices is as simple as comparing scores. The tests also measure and report the bandwidth and average access time performance for the drive. Each test uses traces recorded while performing real-world tasks such as booting Windows 10, starting applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, working with applications such as Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint, and copying several large files and many small files.
The Micron 4600 bested all SSDs to date but for the Intel Optane P5800x, which of course would never have been a fair comparison. Great result!
PCMARK 10 QUICK SYSTEM STORAGE BENCHMARK
The Quick System Drive Benchmark is a subset of the Full test and is more representative of typical daily usage to show what would be expected regarding hybrid SSD performance on a day-to-day basis.
The Micron 4600 Gen 5 2TB SSD once again placed right there at No. 2 of all SSDs tested to date.
TRUE DATA TESTING
For our True Data Testing, we simply loaded 15GB video, music, photo and OS files onto the Micron 4600 Gen5 2TB SSD and copied the data to a new folder on that same disk.
The Micron 4600 is the quickest SSD we have tested to date with this true data transfer benchmark. It is also the first to ever move 15GB of videos in two seconds.
PASSMARK PERFORMANCE TEST
We thought we might add a few extras in our report today, PassMark Performance Test DiskMark component being a nice addition. This software tests sequential reads and writes, along with IOPS and compares the result with millions of other SSDs worldwide. We might suggest being in the 99th percentile of all SSDs tested was a nice resul
The Micron 4600 placed 3rd in the top ten SSDs we have tested to date and is in the 99th percentile of all SSDs tested worldwide by this benchmark.
FINAL FANTASY XIV: ENDWALKER BENCHMARK
The Final Fantasy Benchmark is a new tool in our arsenal and geared specifically to the gamer. The software is installed directly on the SSD and the SSD tested, providing and end result of FPS and scene transition times.
Game load time testing for the Micron 4600 came in at 6.15 seconds, just ahead that of the MP700 Pro we had reviewed a short time ago.
