ANACOMDA i4-X 4TB PCIe Gen4 2280 M.2 SSD Review

Storage/SSD by stefan @ 2024-01-01

ANACOMDA is making a nice proposal with the Phison PS5018 E18 controller, paired with 1GB DDR4 2666MHz DRAM for caching, while the NAND is Toshiba 112L BiCS5 TLC (four packages). The performance matches mainstream to high-end drives, while providing optimal performance after writing about 1TB of data (a part of the pseudoSLC will empty itself when the drive is in IDLE, so the write speed will be able to recover).

Test Setup and Extra Info

Test Bench:

The test system did incorporate a AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6-core CPU, a Sabrent Rocket 2x16GB DDR5 4800MHz C40 memory kit, a PowerColor Red Dragon Radeon RX 5700 video card but also a Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus NVMe 4.0 2TB SSD; all these were connected to the BIOSTAR X670E VALKYRIE AM5 motherboard. As a power supply we have chosen a Cooler Master 850W non-modular and the system was running the latest Windows 11 OS build as well.

The drive has arrived unformatted, but for testing purposes, we have formatted it NTFS:

 

 

With the help of AIDA64, we could extract more information regarding the drive:
