Thanks! Do you think we should separate benchmarks into separate classes for mechanical, SATA SSDs, and PCI-E SSDs?
Yeah I was thinking about this today actually and it would be a good idea. The speeds are so vastly different between the different classes that we'd still know who was the fastest/slowest overall. I think I'll do it!

The leaderboard has now been divided into:

PCIe SSDs Read/Write
SATA RAID SSDs Read/Write
SSDs Read/Write
HDDs Read/Write
USB Flash Drives Read/Write
RAM Disks Read/Write

I got a DataTraveller 100 G3 64GB today - quite a bit slower than the SanDisk Extreme 64GB I also own.

Great score, one of the fastest SATA SSDs on the leaderboard! Leaderboard has been updated - and I've also added salvage-this' scores which have rather embarrassingly been here since November! :D

Can I update my scores?
I have a RAID-1 if you are interested (then gonna run the SSD again in RAID mode rather than AHCI)...

Just lemme reboot to check something and run the test for you for the SSD ;)

Just remember that this is now using RAID rather than AHCI mode.

I know it is not allowed in the leaderboards, but I managed to get this out of RAPID mode :p

If I set it to run on 0s mode, I can get this:
