Now let’s move on to a direct comparison of the SanDisk Professional G-Drive SSD with another portable SSD in the form of the ADATA SE770G in the real life of a workstation. This consumer-only SSD with the almost inevitable RGB attachment takes a similar approach with USB 3.2 and decent NVMe SSD in a portable package. It also uses TLC, and again, the bottleneck is the 10Gbps interface rather than the SSD itself. And yet we will still see significant differences in the following benchmarks
When writing large amounts of data, the SanDisk Professional G-Drive SSD is clearly ahead (icePack, Handbrake, CCX), here the significantly higher write throughput after filling the pSLC cache is strongly advantageous (but not only). Medium-sized blocks are written at about the same speed, and only for binary small stuff can the consumer SSD score (Maya 2017)
The reading is very similar and in the end an adequate picture emerges on the basis of the respective programs.
Summary and conclusion
First of all, it has to be stated that the SSD still managed almost the data rates that are also advertised after a few weeks of continuous use. The fall in the stairwell was quite involuntary, but at least the proof that the part can easily take something like that. Dust and water I believe now simply times, however, the SSD was including morning dew also times at night on the damp balcony. With just under 1000 MB/s you can easily record large format video streams, at least compressed ones. Even higher data rates would be slowed down by the USB interface anyway, so it fits perfectly as it is.
Visually, the SSD is timeless and solidly implemented, without any frills. The fingerprints on the rubber coating are rather unsightly, but can also be removed with a soft cloth. The performance is right, the durability obviously too. The SSD does not get hot, at most lukewarm, and the thick metal core cools the chips exactly as intended. Whether you can and want to spend almost 400 Euros for this quite fast, mobile data grave, is something that everyone has to decide for themselves. At least there is a 5 year (limited) warranty, which is not based on a limited number of writes this time. Unfortunately, it is not clear from the documents where exactly the limit is.
If you often produce streams and need to solve this in a portable way, you are on the safe side here. Of course, this also applies to other content where larger amounts of data are involved. That’s why it’s not really a data grave, but rather a transporter that, as a means to an end, can’t be allowed to flop. So you can definitely do it if you belong to the target group. The rest tinkers such a part just with a good housing and an industrial SSD itself, but must do without the warranty. But he won’t be able to do it much cheaper than that. Enterprise SSDs are unfortunately generally expensive.
