Storage Tests

The standout improvement is M.2 speed. We use a Corsair MP600 2TB NVMe SSD and run it at the fastest speed supported by the motherboard. Here's one good reason to consider X570.

We also compare the primary M.2 heatsink performance when using a WD SN750 1TB NVMe drive by running a 10-minute write test and noting peak temperature. The Asus board topped out at 69°C while the MSI was a touch hotter, at 71°C.
