Asus Crosshair VI Hero Review Asus Crosshair VI Hero Review - M.2 and SATA 6Gbps Performance

M.2 and SATA 6Gbps Performance

Website: CrystalDiskMark

We test the SATA performance with a Crucial MX100 512GB, which can practically saturate the bandwidth of SATA 6Gbps ports.

For the M.2 port, we use Samsung's SSD 960 Evo 500GB M.2 NVMe SSD, which has a claimed throughput of 3,200MB/sec read and 1,800MB/sec write.

M.2 Performance
