The ADATA SU800 has solid random read write speeds that are on par with the Samsung 860 EVO
But blows the Fantom Drives SSHD out of the water. Average sequential write speeds are 520MB/s

Adata's SU800 got off to a rocky start with our IOMeter sequential write test, but its real-world performance should have at least partially made up for that. Let's see where it lands overall. To compare each drive, we take the geometric mean of a basket...

While not the fastest or most feature packed SSD to come through the 'Labs, the ADATA Ultimate SU800 delivers a lot of bang for your buck. The drive combines Silicon Motion's SM2258 controller with Micron's 3D TLC NAND to deliver good performance and a hi...

The ADATA Ultimate SU800 is a decent piece of storage hardware. While we had some mixed results, it delivered a killer score in PCMark 8 standard and proved to be very efficient. It has very good read and write speed (for the most part) and can compete wi...
The differences between SATA based SSD's are not much these days due to the limitations of SATA3 (6Gb/s). Speeds are peaking at/over 550MB reads saturation the available bandwidth. About the only differences in such drives is at the 4K level. The ADATA...
With how cheap SSDs are becoming, I think in this day and age, everyone should have one in their system. Its honestly a question of which ones perform the best. With the addition of 3D NAND Technology, the SU800 from ADATA is steadily outperforming the co...
The ADATA Ultimate SU800 512GB drive was didn't leave us impressed during out testing and it doesn't have anything to make it stand out in a crowded SSD market. A quick look at Newegg and we found that there are over 115 different 2.5″ SSDs available with...
When dealing with sub one hundred dollar storage devices expectations on the part of enthusiasts and even mainstream consumers should be lowered a certain amount. Basically, this class of solid state drive is meant for entry-level, budget constrained syst...
ADATA's Ultimate SU800 will be competing primarily with Crucial's MX300 for market share. Both SSDs are low-cost mainstream performers that deliver an excellent user experience. Both employ essentially the same flash array and both deliver performance t...
