Price-wise, the AORUS RGB M.2 NVMe SSD is available in two capacities of 256GB and 512GB, at the price of RM329 and RM499 respectively. As the read performance remained consistent throughout the entire test, we’d say that it’ll be more suitable as a storage drive for read-only operations i.e storage for games, movies or music files. The write performance drop after filling up the drive to 90% or more of its total capacity makes it clear to us that it’s not the drive you want to go for when it comes to creative works. Verdictīased on our test results which shows the write performance that drops to the level of a SATA drive as according to our test results, we can say that the AORUS RGB M.2 NVMe SSD isn’t really an ideal drive for tasks that involves heavy write operation to the drive. Although we expect to see some drop in write performance after filling up the SSD to 90% of its total capacity, we weren’t expecting this much performance drop. Things are looking quite okay for the first 2GB transfer but immediately dropped to 500~600 MB/s range as soon as we hit over 2GB file transfer. Things appear to be a lot more different as we move on with the test by copying the test files from the AORUS NVMe Gen4 SSD to the AORUS RGB M.2 NVMe SSD.
