Unfortunately, this has long been a common practice for entry-level models, and a few manufacturers have tried it on more upmarket models and been deservedly excoriated when they're caught (eg. ADATA, with the SX8200 Pro).

In boot, the 1TB 870 EVO peaked at 26,502 IOPS and the 4TB model peaked at 27,582 IOPS, while initial Login had the 1TB with a peak performance of 14,193 IOPS and 17,021 IOPS for the 4TB model. Lastly, for Monday Login, 1TB Samsung 870 EVO had a peak performance of 12,161 IOPS and 14,323 IOPS for the 1TB and 4TB models, respectively.

Of course, even with all those big wins in our games and programs testing, ultimately the SSD 870 EVO is still based on SATA, and SATA has a speed ceiling that even the best controllers and NAND flash in the world can't break through. clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604429563-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-95-101-129-82_ts-1604425062-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-95-101-143-18_ts-1604429398-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-95-101-143-24_ts-1604429274-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-95-101-143-24_ts-1604429365-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bs7cq-p4s4el-cd1a19887-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bt4ka-p0qvim-2e8a5e71e-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bt6hq-pzy1yp-35d9d01e0-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bt7mq-p1duy0-1060998fa-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bucja-p0twy9-19851792c-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bzqza-pn76ir-1c0c55ff7-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net, elzm74yxzp4swx5bzsda-pqodge-888ec876f-clientnsv4-s.akamaihd.net,Given the roughly three-year cadence Samsung has set for their SATA SSD updates, the 870 generation may also be the last. Samsung 870 EVO Specifications In sequential Crystal DiskMark speeds, the SSD 870 EVO hits Samsung's own rated spec without a sweat, while 4K results were just a bit stronger, but still a bit slower than expected when comparing the 4TB and 1TB variants of the same drive. clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 54-75-39-103_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604425265-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 54-75-39-103_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604425415-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 54-75-39-103_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604425504-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 54-75-39-103_s-95-101-143-24_ts-1604432234-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 54-75-41-190_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604424935-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, For 4K random read and write, we saw both Samsung capacities hit around 75K IOPS and 63K IOPS, respectively, while the other tested drives showed very similar performance. Moving on to 64K read, the Samsung 870 EVO capacities saw 480MB/s for the 1TB and 487MB/s for the 4TB (much better than the 860’s 290MB/s) while 64K write we saw 369MB/s and 418MB/s, respectively. Though the 860 had better performance than the 1TB 870 EVO in sequential writes, the 4TB model showed a noticeable step up in speed.

In each of these tests, the Samsung SSD 870 EVO proved itself not only as a leader among SATA drives, but also a regular competitor with both PCIe 3.0 and PCIe 4.0-based NVMe M.2 drives. While both of those standards are great for what they do (hitting all-time sequential throughput records), their added bandwidth doesn't always translate to better 4K random read and write scores, which is what a large percentage of SSD buyers in this category tend to care about most. The PCMark 10 copy tests are also derived from PCMark 10 traces. At first, these numbers might look low compared with the straight sequential-throughput numbers achieved in benchmarks like Crystal DiskMark 6.0 and AS-SSD, charted below. But that's due to the way this score is calculated and the nature of (and differences between) the source data sets. In 64K write, the 1TB Samsung 870 EVO peaked at 5,902 IOPS (or 369MB/s) with 2,692ms before taking a hit in performance at the very end. The 4TB model showed a peak at 6,680 IOPS (or 418MB/s) at 2,379ms. The Samsung 860 EVO showed performance right in between the two 870 EVO capacities.Random Read (4 KB, QD1) Up to 13,000 IOPS Random Read * Performance may vary based on system hardware & configuration ** Measured with Intelligent TurboWrite technology being activated clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604425567-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604427446-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604429495-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604424817-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-246-182-217_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604424939-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 176-34-86-175_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604432488-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 176-34-86-175_s-23-203-249-90_ts-1604428164-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 176-34-86-175_s-95-101-143-18_ts-1604428258-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 176-34-86-175_s-95-101-143-24_ts-1604428321-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net, 34-242-207-243_s-23-203-249-81_ts-1604425495-clienttons-s.akamaihd.net,

Performance-wise, the Samsung 870 EVO is quoted to deliver sequential read and write speeds of 560MB/s and 530MB/s, respectively, while random performance is expected to hit up to 98,000 IOPS read and 88,000 IOPS writes. This is only a slight upgrade in sequential read performance over the 550MB/s offered by the 860 EVO (which is expected, since the drive’s performance is capped by the SATA interface), with Samsung claiming a 38% increase in random read performance speeds. To help sustain these performance numbers, the EVO line leverages Intelligent TurboWrite technology.That said, it’s been a while since we’ve seen another EVO release (the last one being the 970 EVO Plus in the summer of 2019 and even longer since a 2.5-inch release), so we are certainly happy to get our hands on it. The 870 EVO uses TLC (or 3bit MLC, as dubbed by Samsung) 3D V-NAND, is available in capacities from 256GB up to 4TB, and features the company’s newest in-house controller. The 870 EVO also offers an endurance of up to 2,400TBW for the highest capacity model.
