File transfers fast at over 1GB/s then suddenly slows down...
Only occurs when transfering a large file from one ssd (1TB) to another (2TB) but not in the opposite direction!
Has to do with cache or something??
Weird SSD effect

this only happens when you use Windows

Holy shit, you're onto something! Let's stay in touch.

>tfw when the mlc cache ends
hahahaha, spinning rust wins again

I actually have 3 SSDs so now messing with the other one, it seems transfering between the NON c-drives doesnt have this issue. but when cutting and pasting the file into the c-drive, it happens
Austin Collins
Yeah that is how a cache works.
Nvme is much better.
I can't wait until HAMMR Drives hit the markets.
Austin Reed
but its odd it doesnt seem to occur on the non-main drives?
i guess windows does enough background tasking to slighly use up a bit more of the main drive cache?
Aiden Edwards
I also could be your ram. Some SSD's are a crapshoot.
Watch: youtube.com
Robert Taylor
the c-drive is actually newer, its an 860 (2 tb) and the others are 850s (1tb and 512gb) ...
and i have 32GB of ram for VMs (none running now)

This is Windows syncing the cache or updating the file table. Sane operating systems allow the operation to complete without this and sync caches on their own time.
Ayden Bennett
I'm retarded, what are HAMMR drives?
Jayden Hughes
Fuk I got cukted OS

HAMMR is an age old technology that can BTFO every HDD ever made.
Austin Rivera
Main drives have caching. External drives have disabled RAM caching so that when you get a "done copying", it's actually done copying and not just cached for writing and you can actually unplug it. What "safely remove" actually did before is immediately write all cache and check all locked files but now they just disable the cache.
Ryder Evans
none of this is with external drives. all sata
Nicholas Collins
BTFO it in slowness maybe...
It's literally just SMR but now you ALSO have to do an extra heat+erase+cool cycle before rewriting an entire track.
Ryan Campbell
i feel like heat adds so many variables, like tiny fragments of garbage are going to fuck HAMMR drives up quick in the real world...
Ian Peterson
windows? if so it's a caching thing. windows caches writes to drives it sees as internal in memory before writing data to a drive. ran into this not that long ago with an iscsi volume. if I tried to copy a large file to it it would either complete within a few seconds but the iscsi target would still show it being written for another minute or two, or if it was a large enough file, show a crazy fast transfer rate for a bit then slow back down to what the network transfer rate should be

Retina Macbook Pro doesn't have this problem.

Evo line use TLC memory, usually slowdown time SLC cache get full
Cooper Powell
If he transfere to TLC SSD yes will happens.
Blake Gonzalez
My HAMMR will BTFO your HDD.
Angel Cruz
There's a reason it has been in development for so much time
Thomas Bell
Mostly likely, Glass platters and all...
It's going to be interesting to see how long they last for their only real market - cold storage.
Ian Gonzalez
It's HAMR, retards. Heat Assisted Magnetic Storage.
Eli Roberts
just wait for HLC ssds (hexa-level cells) and then SSDs will be finally cheap enough to compete with HDDs on $/capacity
Josiah Powell

Good one OP.
Charles Stewart
>HLC
It'll be cheap, high capacity, and just long enough life to post a five star review.
Ryder Baker
Cells don't die without writes (although idling the drive will consume writes as the charge degrades over time, requiring a rewrite)
For cold storage, it probably won't be any worse than HAMR anyway.
Landon Ortiz
Flash makes terrible long term storage as charge leaks.
Anthony Brooks
Vaporeon is the worst eeveelution, kys
Josiah Reyes
At least it gets moves. Flareon doesn't.
Elijah Jones
It's a shame you can't use RAM to cache your data in windows without third party programs.
Noah Mitchell
EVO uses DRAM as cache, not SLC.
Tyler Edwards
You can, that is how some toshiba NVMe SSDs work.
Robert Adams
They will have shit reliability tho.
Kevin Russell
Your SSD has a write cache and it can write to the cache really fast, but when the cache fills up it has to commit the cache and continue saving, which slows the fuck down

Linus did a video that explains this. The Intel 660 one.

slightly offtopic but can anyone explain what turbowrite does on samsung ssd's in simple english?
