Niether drive is the champ when it comes to 10Gbps performance.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In our real-world 48GB transfer tests performed at 10Gbps, the story was essentially the same: The P50&rsquo;s speedy reading compensated somewhat for its slightly slow writing. Unofficially (and not shown), on a sample 20Gbps testbed, both the WD and Seagate cut into these times drastically. Multiply by 0.6 for a rough estimate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"large \"><a class=\"zoom article-gallery cboxElement\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: #25a7d7; text-decoration: none; position: relative; display: block; overflow: hidden; max-width: 620px;\" title=\"&lt;div class=&#039;credit&#039;&gt;IDG&lt;\/div&gt;\n&lt;p&gt;Among the four drives in the real-world 48GB copy test, we see some noticeable differences betweed read and write speeds.&nbsp;&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" href=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/wd-black-gaming-ssd-48gb-100847520-orig.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/wd-black-gaming-ssd-48gb-100847520-large.jpg\" alt=\"wd black gaming ssd 48gb\" width=\"616\" height=\"352\" border=\"0\" data-imageid=\"100847520\" data-license=\"IDG\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.idgesg.net\/images\/article\/2020\/06\/wd-black-gaming-ssd-48gb-100847520-large.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"zoom-icon\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<p><small class=\"credit\">IDG<\/small><figcaption>\n<p>Among the four drives in the real-world 48GB copy test, we see some noticeable differences betweed read and write speeds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The transfer tests (10Gbps) ended too close to call with the various test results totaled; however, there were differences in the individual tests. The P50 is definitely a faster reader than most, but a slower writer. In the grand scheme of external storage, it&rsquo;s quite adept at both.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Testing is performed<\/strong><\/em>&nbsp;on Windows 10 64-bit running on a Core i7-5820K\/Asus X99 Deluxe system with four 16GB Kingston 2666MHz DDR4 modules, a Zotac (Nvidia) GT 710 1GB x2 PCIe graphics card, and an Asmedia ASM2142 USB 3.1 Gen 2 (SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps) card. Also on board are a Gigabyte GC-Alpine Thunderbolt 3 card and Softperfect&rsquo;s Ramdisk 3.4.6, which is used for the 48GB read and write tests.<\/p>\n<p>USB Gen 2&#215;2\/SuperSpeed USB 20Gbps was tested with the same components listed above, with the exception of a Threadripper 3970X on loan from AMD and an MSI Creator TRX4 motherboard.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/3346142\/usb4-what-this-future-standard-means-for-usb-chaos-and-thunderbolt-3.html\">USB4<\/a>&nbsp;will support SuperSpeed USB 20Gbps and add SuperSpeed USB 40Gbps<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h2>Great if you want the styling and have the gear<\/h2>\n<p>Do you need 2GBps transfers for gaming? Heck no. Would you like to have them? Heck yeah. Any time a drive makes you wait, it&rsquo;s not fast enough. The WD Black P50 Game Drive SSD won&rsquo;t make you wait a lot&mdash;it&rsquo;s an excellent drive, and its styling may put gamers in the mood for digital mayhem.<\/p>\n<p>The real issue is bang for the buck. If you&nbsp;have a SuperSpeed USB 20Gbps port, the P50 gives you extra speed for the extra cash. Nice. If you don&rsquo;t yet have said port, you&rsquo;re paying a hefty premium for appearances.
