Throughput Benchmarks (SEQ and RND)
CrystalDiskMark
We are using CrystalDiskMark to benchmark sequential and random throughput of read and write performance. For these NVMe SSDs, we are using the NVMe profile in CrystalDiskMark. This tests SEQ1M Q8T1, SEQ128K Q32T1, RND4K Q32T16, and RND4K Q1T1.
The rated sequential speed on the TEAMGROUP T-FORCE G50 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD is 5,000MB/s read and 4,500MB/s write for the 2TB model we are testing. The read performance is hitting its quoted target, coming right in at close to 5,000MB/s. However, the write speed is trailing a bit more than we expected. When you put this in comparison to the other drives, the read speed is on par with the Sabrent Rocket, but the MSI Spatium M470 and Lexar NM710 are pulling in slightly higher read speeds. However, on write performance it is competitive, pulling in higher write performance than the MSI Spatium M470 and nearly matching the Lexar NM710 on write performance.
In SEQ128K Q32T1 the TEAMGROUP T-FORCE G50 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD is again hitting its intended read speeds great, but the write speeds are falling a bit under what we would expect. This still keeps it competitive with other SSDs in this range, however, besting the MSI SPATIUM M470 in write performance.
In RND4K Q32T16 performance we see the TEAMGROUP T-FORCE G50 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD pick up a bit more, and we find it much more competitive in random performance. The read performance is well ahead of the Sabrent Rocket and ADATA Legend 850, but once again is falling behind the MSI Spatium M470 and Lexar NM710. It’s write performance also falls under those, but is a lot faster than the Sabrent Rocket and ADATA Legend 850.
In RND4K Q1T1 performance is where the TEAMGROUP T-FORCE G50 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD shines, its read performance is top-notch, besting every other SSD here, including the MSI Spatium M470 and Lexar NM710. However, once again its write performance trails in performance.
ATTO
Using the popular ATTO Disk Benchmark, the TEAMGROUP T-FORCE G50 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD trails other SSDs in this range on read performance, but not write performance. The TEAMGROUP T-FORCE G50 2TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD’s write performance is actually pretty good here, besting the MSI Spatium M470 and coming close to the Lexar NM710.
