System Storage Benchmarks
3DMark
We are using 3DMark’s Storage Benchmark which tests common gaming workload traces. The benchmark tests loading Battlefield V, Call of Duty Black Ops 4, and Overwatch. It tests moving games by copying a Steam folder for CS:GO, and installing Outer Worlds from the Epic Games Launcher, and saving game progress in The Outer Worlds. It tests recording a 1080p gameplay video at 60FPS with OBS while playing Overwatch. We will graph the Overall Benchmark Score, higher is better.
In the 3DMark Storage Benchmark, the MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR 2TB PCIe Gen5 SSD scores 3461 in the overall score, which is just shy of the MSI SPATIUM M570 PRO FROZR. The performance is so close to both SSDs, they are practically the same, and within the margin of error. The MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR 2TB SSD is, however, about 1.4% above the CORSAIR MP700 PRO 2TB SSD in this test. For all intents and purposes, all three Gen5 SSDs have relatively similar performance in 3DMark’s Storage Benchmark, which is the highest we’ve seen in this benchmark. That is to say, Gen4 drives are slower here, this performance is good all around.  
PCMark 10
We are using PCMark 10’s Full System Drive Storage Benchmark. It outputs an overall score (higher is better) that is derived from the Bandwidth (higher is better) as well as access time (lower is better) results.
In PCMark 10’s full system drive storage benchmark, the MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR 2TB PCIe Gen5 SSD is at the top of the charts in overall full system drive performance. We see it edge out over the MSI SPATIUM M570 PRO slightly, and a bit more over the CORSAIR MP700 PRO 2TB SSD. Once again, in this particular system test, the performance of all three SSDs is rather close, but this is also a lot faster than any Gen4 SSD in this test, these are very high results.
The average access time test in PCMark 10’s Storage Benchmark shows you a closer look at where things line up. The reason all three SSDs are coming in so close in PCMark 10’s testing is because the Access Time is weighed heavily, and here we can see all three SSDs have the same access time of 38 microseconds. Therefore, the overall result score is similar between them. This access time btw is pretty incredible, and very good, it’s extremely fast and faster than any Gen4 SSDs we’ve ever seen.  
In the above graph, we are testing PCMark 10’s Quick Storage Benchmark, which utilizes a lighter workload of traces meant for smaller drives, it provides an interesting contrast to the wide-ranging test of the full benchmark above. The MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR 2TB PCIe Gen5 SSD is once again just a hair under the MSI SPATIUM M570 PRO FROZR 2TB SSD, but honestly they are so close it’s practically the same performance. The MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR 2TB PCIe Gen5 SSD is a bit higher over the CORSAIR MP700 PRO.
PassMark PerformanceTEST
We are using PassMark’s PerformanceTEST Disk Mark benchmark only. This test benchmarks Disk Sequential Read, Disk Sequential Write, IOPS 32KQD20, IOPS 4KQD1 tests and outputs an overall score (higher is better.)
In PassMark PerformanceTest Disk Mark the MSI SPATIUM M580 FROZR 2TB PCIe Gen5 SSD is at the top of the charts, beating the MSI SPATIUM M570 PRO FROZR 2TB by 3% in this overall score in this benchmark. It’s also faster than the CORSAIR MP700 PRO 2TB by 2%. Once again, these are very high numbers compared to Gen4 SSDs.
