PCMark 8 Storage Benchmark

PCMark 8 Storage benchmark tests the performance of SSDs, HDDs, and SSHD hybrid drives with traces recorded from Adobe Creative Suite, Microsoft Office and a selection of games. You can test any recognised storage device, including local external drives. Unlike synthetic storage tests, the PCMark 8 Storage benchmark highlights real-world performance differences between storage devices.

Drive Comparison

PCMark’s storage test isn’t purely drive-based and as such, the rest of the system has an impact on the scores. Drives which are marked by an asterisk are tested on a newer and more powerful system. That fact will cause improved scores for newly tested drives.
