This time we imaged a few of them and\u00a0cross-checked the speed with userbenchmark.com, where you can find detailed info on the minimum, average and maximum read and write speed of almost every data storage device in the market.<\/p>\n<p><em>NB. Imaging speed is limited by the speed of the slowest of the devices participating in the imaging session. Therefore, the slowest of the two speeds (either the read speed of the source or the write speed of the target) will define the speed at which imaging process is running.<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Samsung 850 Pro 256GB<\/h3>\n<p>We begin with the Samsung 850 Pro SSDs mentioned above. These two drives are not damaged but are rather worn out, as we have been demonstrating Insight&#8217;s imaging speed on them at every exhibition for a few years now. Insight images from one such SSD to another at 501 MB\/s (therefore it is the write speed of the target drive that defines the imaging speed in this case).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2081\" style=\"width: 914px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2081\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2081 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-imaging.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"904\" height=\"746\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-imaging.png 904w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-imaging-150x124.png 150w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-imaging-300x248.png 300w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-imaging-768x634.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2081\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Atola Insight Forensic: SSD imaging<\/p><\/div>\n<p>At userbenchmark.com this drive&#8217;s maximum write speed in sequential mode (sectors read and written to in sequential order) is 502 MB\/s.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ssd.userbenchmark.com\/Samsung-850-Pro-256GB\/Rating\/2385\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2080\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"608\" height=\"126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb.png 608w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-150x31.png 150w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro256gb-300x62.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 608px) 100vw, 608px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Samsung 850 Pro 128GB<\/h3>\n<p>Next, we take the 128 GB version of the same SSD drive, and Insight images it at 490 MB\/s.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2079\" style=\"width: 914px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2079\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2079 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-imaging.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"904\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-imaging.png 904w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-imaging-150x118.png 150w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-imaging-300x237.png 300w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-imaging-768x606.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2079\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Atola Insight Forensic<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The maximum write rate (we image to an identical SSD) claimed at userbenchmark.com (based on over 6 thousand samples) is 490 MB\/s, the same rate as that achieved by Insight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ssd.userbenchmark.com\/Samsung-850-Pro-128GB\/Rating\/3483\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2078\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb.png 595w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-150x29.png 150w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/samsung850pro128gb-300x58.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Toshiba X300\u00a04TB<\/h3>\n<p>When Insight images a 4TB Toshiba X300 (an HDD with SATA interface), it achieves the speed of 195 MB\/s.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2083\" style=\"width: 914px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2083\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2083 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ToshibaX3004TB-imaging.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"904\" height=\"746\" srcset=\"https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ToshibaX3004TB-imaging.png 904w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ToshibaX3004TB-imaging-150x124.png 150w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ToshibaX3004TB-imaging-300x248.png 300w, https:\/\/atola.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/ToshibaX3004TB-imaging-768x634.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 904px) 100vw, 904px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2083\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Atola Insight Forensic: HDD imaging<\/p><\/div>\n<p>How does this speed compare to the one at userbenchmark.com?
