Note that despite its name CrystalDiskMark is actually a benchmark of a filesysystem on a.

Random Write 4KiB (Q= 8,T= 8 ) : 321.975 MB/s Id say fio would have no trouble producing those workloads.

This system has a Gigabyte B550 AORUS MASTER motherboard, which is actually a great choice for a B550 motherboard, especially if you want extra storage flexibility. Random Read 4KiB (Q= 8,T= 8 ) : 393.900 MB/s So, here are some quick comparative CrystalDiskMark results in 2020 from those six drives.
