CrystalDiskMark 3.0.1 Results

CrystalDiskMark is an easy-to-run and quick utility to use to gauge a drive’s performance. It measures sequential read and write performance and random read and write speeds of random 4KB, 4KB (queue depth 32) and 512KB data.

On CrystalDiskMark, we found that the recorded speeds of the Plextor M6M was again very similar to the M6S. Apart from 4K write speeds, which the M6M trailed by around 19%, the rest of the results were just about identical. Unfortunately, this also means that like the M6S, the M6M was slightly slower than the other mainstream SSDs - though we must emphasize that the difference was not much.
