Every time I decide to upgrade my damn computer something like this happens, come on i7-5820K, just a little longer, the prices will drop any time now…

I’m need to save high speed radio samples, think a single super high speed ~100MHz audio wav recording, so not really compressible and can use large block IO. Thankfully it’s about as close to a synthetic write test as you could get. I ended up getting the Samsung

I normally would get a cheap P3+, but those SSDs have terrible sustained write performance, I needed the sustained speed here, ended up getting the samsung

Thanks, ended up getting the Samsung

How is that? I need good >250MB/s sustained synchronous transfer for saving real time sample data, does the random 4k io still impact that?
