Thanks.

Is there a bench I can run to emulate this?

I have CrystalDiskMark but with that the P2 seems to beat the SATA 2.5 SSDs in writes but not the other NVMes.

Copy a big folder to the drive. Then watch the transfer speeds. After a while they will tank to or below HDD levels. Can't say how long that will take though.

I don't have a HDD installed so I used three computers using difference types of  SSDs.

I used a folder that is 58gbs with 16 files in it(Fallout 4 high res pack). I copied it from one folder on the drives to another. I did the test with the Crucial P2, Corsair MP600(PCIe 4) and a Crucial MX300(SATA).

 

The PM600 won with a time of 36.66 seconds

 

The Crucial MX300 was last and did it in 4 minutes 56 seconds and kept a constant pace.  

 

The Crucial P2 did it in 1 minute 52 seconds and visibly slowed down twice at 66% and at 84%.

The pauses on the P2 would probably get worse on larger file transfers but it is not something I do every day.  

 

The other interesting part of the test was the time it took to copy the files from a WD Passport to the drives.  There was only a 13 second difference between them.
