Addlink X70 RGB 1TB NVMe SSD Review

SPECworkstation 3 Benchmark

The SPECworkstation 3 was introduced in 2018 and features 30 workloads containing nearly 140 tests. The developer updated the storage workloads that are based on traces of nearly two-dozen applications. We ran the storage workload (WPCstorge) and are using the results from just three of the tests to show the performance difference between the SSDs that we are testing. Individual scores are generated for each test and a composite score for each category is calculated based on a reference machine, yielding a “bigger is better” result. We are using the actual ‘raw score’ result in three tests that we want to show actual transfer rates rather than a composite score.

The first workload that we will be showing is a trace that uses Microsoft Visual Studio to compile a build of Mozilla Firefox browser. The KC2500 1TB NVMe SSD finished this workload with a read speed of 1749.5 MB/s.

The next trace involves a Handbrake transcode and the addlink X70 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD finished with 531.2 MB/s on the read speed and 200.2 MB/s on the write side.

In the 7zip workload the addlink X70 finished in 4th among the PCIe 3.0 drives and 6th overall!
