![]() ![]() Write performance drop are usually very significant on DRAM-less SSD but I can say that the 1GB DRAM cache on the Samsung 860 EVO is definitely making a lot of difference here, especially for the performance that is near to 500MB/s, which is quite unusual even on SATA SSD with DRAM cache. Moving on to the write performance, there’s hardly any drop in the average write speed even for large files (16GB above) is involved.
