![]() ![]() This is a Gen3, not a Gen4, storage device in a 2280 package. The exact item is the Silicon Power 2TB A60 NVMe.

I found a product that I liked and wanted to share the results with others. Here are my thoughts and some benchmarks that I recorded of the A60 in Linux for those who might like to see some Linux results. Having good success with the Silicon Power brand in the past Intel NUC build, I decided to try the 2TB A60 NVMe model. All the cards are the correct memory size when tested so I dont think Ive got any counterfeits but maybe Im wrong in assuming that. Benchmark result is NOT compatible between different major version. Sandisk Ultra 80MB/s 10 1 32 80.21 16.75. CrystalDiskMark may shorten SSD/USB Memory life. I dont see anything out of the ordinary tbh. ![]() If this server is bare-metal, you may still get more or less an idea of its storage performance, though. DiskSPD is a more accurate tool for this. After all, the Quieter2Q cannot reach the full potential of a Gen3 or Gen4 NVMe anyway, so why pay more when a “slower” NVMe will work just as well? (“Slower” is relative, by the way, since any NVMe is already plenty fast.) Sandisk Ultra 30MB/s 10 1 16 42.73 40.29. Crystal disk mark cant really be the right tool to test the underlying RAID performance. Changed DiskSpd Affinity option (-ag -> -n) Included ARM64 support for ZIP/INSTALLER. Recently, I needed a high capacity NVMe for a project involving the Quieter2Q mini PC but did not want to pay Samsung prices for a top-of-the line NVMe device. Rebuilt UI (HTML -> GDI) Changed Sequential Benchmark (Block Size 128KiB -> 1MiB) Changed Random Benchmark (Q8T8 -> Q32T16) Added Peak/Real World Performance Profile. If so, then it is not always necessary to obtain the latest and greatest PCIe Gen4 NVMe storage device because these can be expensive depending upon the brand… very expensive. Sometimes, capacity is more important than speed. ![]()
