Some eMMC modules claim 150MB/s read/write; i.e. same speed as hard drives from about 5-7 years ago. Or put another way approximately twice as fast as an average USB3 flash drive.
- beagle3 12y agoYou had a 150MB/s hard drive 5 years ago? What kind of a drive was that? I'm only getting 100-150MB/sec on rotating media today. Only 7.2K, but even 5 years ago, 10K didn't deliver that transfer speed from what I remember.
- desdiv 12y agoHe was probably referring to solid state hard drives.
- vardump 12y agoFor example 1TB Samsung drives delivered 100 MB/s over 5 years ago. Most 3.5" disks delivered as much.
- beagle3 12y agoI was surprised by that, though I shouldn't have been: I'm getting about 100MB/sec from 3.5" Samsungs, WDs and Seagates today - but you're right according to these 4 year old benchmarks: http://www.storagereview.com/western_digital_caviar_blue_1tb_review_wd10ealx http://www.storagereview.com/western_digital_caviar_blue_1tb... I guess the configuration I'm benchmarking with, and the type of load, which is basically streaming, but from a journaled-but-otherwise-standard ext4, slows me down a little. But the convenience and standardness of this setup is worth more to me than a factor of 2 in performance (that's not my bottleneck at the moment).
