Danawa Tests Top SSDs of 2019


The South Korean, consumer-orientated website, Danawa, recently scrutinized a bunch of SSDs and found Digifast to be quite good!
Danawa is a popular website that offers users a plethora of tests and information regarding products that they sell. Consumers can utilize this information to make an educated purchase. In this case, they ran tests on SSDs using two benchmarks: AS SSD and Anvil.
The 1TB Digifast NVMe M.2 was submitted with 16 other M.2 NVMe drives using the machine specs listed below. Figure 1 shows the results of the AS SSD bench, and figure 2 shows the results of the Anvil bench. Each measures the sequential and random read/write speeds of target SSDs using large and small files. After testing, each drive is given a score based on the combined results of each test. The results are posted below and the full article is available at http://dpg.danawa.com/bbs/view?boardSeq=231&listSeq=4096650

System Specs:
SSD - Samsung 860  Pro 256GB (SATA3)
CPU - Intel Core i7-8 Gen 8700K // (3.7GHz @ 5.1Ghz)
Motherboard - ASUS ROG MAXIMUS X APEX
RAM - G.SKILL DDR4 16G PC4-34100 CL19 TRIDENT Z (8Gx2) // XMP 4,300MHz
Graphics Card - AMD SAPPHIRE Radeon VII HBM2 16GB
HDD - Toshiba Enterprise MG04ACA500E 5TB (SATA3 / 7200rpm / 128M)
Power Supply - Seasonic P-760 80PLUS PLATINUM (2nd generation)
Fan - LAMPTRON FC5 V2 Black (30W 4 Channel)
CPU Coolers - DEEPCOOL GAMER STORM CAPTAIN 360 (120mm x 3 Rows Water Cooled)
RAM Cooler - G.SKILL TURBULENCE II FAN White (Overram & M.2 Cooling)
Case - CORSAIR GRAPHITE SERIES 760T Black
OS - Windows 10 Pro 64-bit



Results


Figure 1: From left to right: Brand, controller, read access time, write access time, read score, write score, total.


Figure 2: From left to right: brand, 4K write, 4K read, write score, read score, total.

As you can see, Digifast performs up to and beyond the level we have come to expect from NVMe M.2. The combination of small reads and writes individually as well as queued couple with sequential reads and writes gives Digifast an all-around great performance rating.
