Review: MSI Infinite A 8th

Benchmarks: Storage

That 128GB SATA SSD isn't an ideal choice. The 2.5in drive offers little capacity and is particularly weak with regards to write performance. On the plus side, using an Intel Optane Memory M.2 accelerator as a cache for the secondary 2TB hard disk is a neat trick. Sequential read performance on the spare volume is recorded ay just over 700MB/s, and though you're at the mercy of Intel's caching algorithms, it's a useful way of minimising game load times.
