    Adata SX8100 4TB Information

    Posted: 08 Apr 2021 12:41 AM PDT

    I recently brought the /r/buildapcsales deal on the SX8100, and there was some possible confusion on the drive. So I am posting it here for people.

    So one thing I think people are unclear about is that the other SX8100 drives at smaller capacities can be TLC, and if the 4TB one is TLC or QLC, given that other confirmed TLC 4 TB drives are costing 2x as much right now, I wasn't hoping for a lottery win and it wasn't a lottery win. It is indeed a QLC drive.

    One thing to be noted, even tho that on its spec sheet it lists it as a 3 GB/s write, I can only get 2.2 GB/s write out of it and I am pretty sure that I am not bottlenecking it in some way in my system.

    Give the price, and my lack of M.2 drive slots (and really everyone unless you have a board that does PCIE bifurcation + those quad M.2 PCIE 16 spliters), this thing fulfills my need for a game drive that will hopefully be enough for direct storage (yes I know they are PCIE4 based and have faster reads) or at least be able to do better than SATA based SSDs I have now / the one 660p I have as existing game storage.

    Temp wise, when running the disk mark, I gotten max of 43 C in my system which has a provided beefy head spreader for all M.2 drive (Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Master), the one they shipped with is more a label than heatspreader, the double sided tape was thicker than the metal part of the thing... And it felt more like plastic than metal from my touch but it could just be how thin it is and so why it feels spongy.

    Note C: drive is a 970 Evo Plus 1 TB that I boot off of, F is the intel 660 and is not under load and W is the Adata just after a run of CrystalDiskMark and maybe for longer uses it would get up to 45C or more? It is also kind of disadvantaged as the slot I am mounting it in is right under my 2080 TI and that thing out puts HEAT, while the 970 Evo plus is right above the GPU slot in the back side of it. And the 660p gets the bottom one (the only one with PCIE 3.0 x2 speeds only) which is likely the coolest one given its far from the GPU.

    I went in knowing exactly that this is a value drive where I don't need to sped a ton of money specifically for a drive with really fast reads all (most) of the time and is a great fit for a game drive as it is a very typically a low write and high read scenario. But I would think that if you are hoping to use it as your boot drive / swap file drive that you would likely better served by going with a lower capacity and higher quality drive.

    Sound quality is strange.

    Posted: 08 Apr 2021 12:38 AM PDT

    When I plug headphones into the rear jack directly on my motherboard, the sound is of lower quality than the front case jack, especially in midrange. However, on the front jack, there is more interference with my noisy case parts, which results in noise and static.

    What's going on here?
