HP P900 1TB Portable SSD Review

The drive promised to deliver read and write speeds of up to 2000 MB/s and from our first benchmark, that’s certainly holding true. Actually, at 2030.52 MB/s, it exceeded the read speeds and hit a very respectable write of nearly 1800 MB/s

This is reflected in the IOPS too, with the drive handling 1M and 4K loads with ease.

AS SSD often shows a lower score than CDM, but still it’s very high with 1864 MB/s read and 1648 MB/s write in sequential loads, with some very low access times too.

For copy performance, moving an IOS, program and game took just a few seconds each, so again, top marks for the HD SSD.

Similarly, we see this test confirms the IOPS at 16MB, 4K and 512B are consistent and scoring high throughout.

The Anvil test scored strongly too, with write speeds over 1800 MB/s, giving it a strong overall score of 6416 points.

Aja is a pretty quick benchmark, and it tests if the drive can record various video formats in real-time, in this case, yes, it can handle a 5K RED 10-bit video capture with ease.

In 3DMark Storage Benchmark, we see that game loading times and access times are very quick, so if you want to play games directly from the drive, you shouldn’t have any issues.

The drive manages to get up to its peak speed from 1MB files onwards but is already hitting over 1.2 GB/s from 64 KB, so moving large amounts of small files should go pretty swiftly.

Finally, we can see that the temperatures are superb, with the drive never exceeding 43c under heavy loads from all our benchmarking from its idle of just 28c. It barely felt warm to the touch.
