A few days ago, I was very surprised to receive an SSD SSD aigo P3000Pro official gift from aigo, and I had a preliminary understanding of the parameters, which support PCIe 3x4 channel flash memory, NVME1.3 technical standard, 3D TLC NAND preferred flash memory particles, 1TB large capacity, and even support DRAM cache. The experience after installing it was completely beyond my imagination.
People who are not familiar with SSDs, the first time they hear this word, they will directly associate with A USB stick. In fact, it looks more like an electronic component, with no resemblance at all. The surface of the "electronic components" aigo P3000Pro SSD is marked with various information, you can see the barcode, as well as the brand model, as well as the size parameters of the storage and so on. The aigo P3000Pro SSD I received has a capacity of 1TB, which even feels a bit oversized for my computer.
Unlike the USB flash drive, the electronic component of the aigo P3000Pro SSD is not external to the computer and cannot be used with you. Friends who have no installation experience, it is best to turn to professionals when needed. But in fact, as long as you have experience, it is still very simple to add an SSD to the computer.
In my laptop, for example, remove the back cover to see where the hard drive is. Like my "old" notebook, there are two places reserved for SSDs, just plug in the aigo P3000Pro SSD and screw it. But before installing an SSD, it's best to disconnect the laptop's battery cable, and the desktop computer should turn off the power completely. Another point to note is that a screw given by the patriot is a special five-star screw, which is slightly different from the ordinary screw, and it is necessary to find the corresponding screwdriver to install it.
In addition, it should be noted that the correct installation method must be to insert all the gold finger parts of the aigo P3000Pro SSD, if only half of it is inserted, there is no way to read normally.
After installing the aigo P3000Pro SSD, you can feel the fluency rarely found in old notebooks. I opened the computer and tested the two games I prefer, Tomb Raider and The Elder Scrolls 5 are both AAA masterpieces, but on my computer, the transition animation was really slow to load when playing with a mechanical hard disk. After installing the aigo P3000 Pro SSD, you can see that the loading process is quite smooth.
After trying to install the game in the aigo P3000Pro SSD, and then testing the speed of the game loading, you can see that the speed is still very fast. "Tomb Raider" occupies a lot of memory, and judging from the GIF I recorded, this speed is already very good. For computers, the loading of large games depends mainly on the writing speed of the hard disk. Relying on the AIGO P3000Pro SSD's NVMe 3.1 technology standard and the market's mainstream SSD, it can achieve read and write speeds of up to 3500m/s.
For graphic workers, the speed of the computer is also very important. After installing the aigo P3000Pro SSD, it took only 3 seconds to open 62 images simultaneously using the Capture One 11. This speed is much faster than I used before with mechanical hard drives.
Incidentally, test the speed at which a folder is compressed into a compressed package, and you can see that a 6.4G folder compression took three minutes to complete.
The hard disk transfer speed will be affected by the size of the file, the file is too large, and the overall transfer data will also be reduced. In order to test the transfer speed of aigo P3000Pro SSD in this regard, I prepared 96 photos of the size of 1.23G to test, you can see my screenshot, at the beginning it has been transferred halfway, the speed of the remaining 732M, aigo P3000 Pro SSD can be seen.
The smaller the file, the faster the transfer speed. In terms of fragmented files, using ATTO to run, you can see that 152B fragmented files can run to 39.92M/s, while 54M fragmented files can run to 2.38G/s speed.
Test the aigo P3000 Pro SSD directly using the test software. First use CrystalDiskInfo to see the information of patriot P3000Pro, firmware, serial number, interface standard, etc. can be correctly identified, and the right side shows the number of power-ups and part of the read and write information.
The aigo P3000 Pro SSD was scored using test software, using three different test software for testing. Running once with ass SSDs, you can see that the read speed is as high as 2296.92M and the write speed reaches 2334.22M.
Use TxBENCH to test. It can be seen that the largest read and write speed in sequence is 3149.006M, while the write speed reaches 2797.913M.
Also ran with the crystaldiskmark, you can see that the read speed is 3169.10M and the write speed is 2738.52M. Although the test speed of the three software has not yet reached the official maximum transmission speed of 3500M/s, referring to the test of the aigo P3000Pro SSD by other talents, it is estimated that my computer is "old". But even so, the measured speed is sufficient for most users.
At the beginning of the aigo P3000 Pro SSD homework, I found that some small partners have the problem of not finding a new hard disk in my computer after installing the SSD. In fact, just open my computer, right-click Manage, Storage, Disk Management (Local) until you see a brand new hard disk area, and choose to format it. Formatting allows new SSDs to appear in my computer.
Try, I feel that after the computer has been used for a long time, instead of spending a lot of money to immediately find a new high-configuration computer, it is better to start an aigo P3000Pro SSD to instantly save your computer in the water.
