After we had the Samsung SSD 750 Evo in the test, follow further newcomers. On the one hand we would have the Corsair Neutron XTI with 480 and with 960 gigabytes and the Crucial MX300 with 750 gigabytes of capacity. Both of our practice test trails are benchmarks and typical applications. The latter SSD is already on the market and hits under 200 euros to book. Later, further sizes are to come. The Neutron XTI SSDs will shortly appear at the price of 234.99 (480GB) and 464 € (960GB). The Corsair Neutron XTI will also have a 240GB version for 124.99 euros on the market.
The SSDs of Corsair and Crucial are no direct competitors, not just because of the different storage sizes available. The price already indicates that it has Crucial with about 26 cents per gigabyte on the average consumer and Corsair aimed at enthusiasts and profianwender. The UVP prices at Corsair are just below those of the sour cream Samsung with the SSD 850 Pro. At Corsair, there is a gigabyte for just over 48.3 cents, at Samsung for nearly 52 cents (for the 960GB and 1000GB variants). Since the 850 Pro has already been on the market for two years, the price has declined. Road prices for the 850 Pro are now about 42 cents per gigabyte. Can Corsair compensate for the now higher price with more power and better features?
Lesetipp: SSD myths and real tips
In our test of the Samsung SSD 850 Pro we measured in September 2017 516 MB / s while reading and 491 MB / s when writing. Since the plate came as one of the first with a 3D-V-NAND-base and the values are still air upwards, we use the SSD 840 Pro as a comparison for the Praxistest and a further developed SSD 850 Evo. They both work in the same system.
As a test system we use a Skylake computer with Windows 10 with the following basic data
The SSDs come into play as a system disk. To do this, we have installed Windows 10 cleanly, including driver setup and backed up by image.
We use as test software the three programs Anvil's Storage Utilities, Atto Disk Benchmark and CrystalDiskMark. In addition, we take a look at the temperatures and make duplicate tests, leave a large zip file unzip and stop each time.
