Overall, the FireCuda 530 is the fastest SSM of all in the test. The only thing it lacks is a heat sink.
- Outstanding transfer rates
- Good price-performance ratio
The Seagate FireCuda 530 2TB ignites the data turbo in the test and relegates our previous test models to the lower ranks. With uncompromising read and write performance - even in the continuous write test - the SSD raises the bar a bit. The storage capacity of 2,000 GB is also more than generous for an NVMe SSD. The price is perfectly acceptable for the performance offered.
- very fast
- Hardly any heating
- very expensive
During daily typing, you should hardly notice which SSD is in the PC - the Transcend PCIe SSD 112S is fast enough for that. Only if you frequently move large amounts of data is it worth investing in a faster SSD. In this category, PNY XLR8 CS3140 and Seagate FireCuda 530 are very similar and the benchmark results are hardly different...
