You've probably heard it before: storage is the slowest part of a computer. A typical spinning hard drive operates with around 12 milliseconds of random access latency, basically the time required to lookup or write data someplace on the drive. It seems a...
It is obvious solid-state drives are fast, but that is not all to consider. Older style 2.5” SATA SSDs (and a few “SATA-only” M.2 drives) suffer from an interface bottleneck of around 550MB/s. Non-SATA M.2 drives simply don't have this limitation, and esp...

Last year, ADATA launched the XPG GAMMIX S10 series of M.2 PCIe x4 NVMe 1.2 certified SSDs that consists of drives with capacities of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB. The XPG GAMMIX S10 series is not the fastest drives offered by ADATA, but the performance of...
At the end of the day the ADATA XPG Gammix S10 M.2 NVMe SSD is nothing more than the entry-level XPG SX7000 M.2 NVMe SSD, adding only a heatspreader. That isn't a bad thing though as the performance of the drive was on par with what one would expect for a...

Like most companies out there ADATA now has a dedicated gaming line of products, which is their XPG line. One of the newest products in this line is the XPG Gammix S10 M.2 solid state drive. This small little drive with its flashy looks is available in 12...
Faster than a SATA III SSD, Good pricing, Sleek heatsink, 5-year warranty...
Not the fastest drive out there, Lower performance when doing long writes, XPG logo is upside down when installed in our system...
ADATA has done a really great job of rebranding their original SX7000 to appeal to more people, the XPG Gammix S10 is basically the SX7000 with a flashy heatspreader. That heatspreader design is actually pretty awesome and is going to look great in your s...

The Adata XPG GAMMIX S10 features a stunning heatsink design that is more form than function. Under the pretty veil is an entry-level NVMe SSD that is similar to Intel's 600p, which is one of the most popular NVMe SSDs on the market. The XPG GAMMIX S10 do...
Low cost, Better than SATA performance until you push it, Attractive design, A strong generaluse SSD...
Low delta to degraded performance state, The low performance is noticeable when pushed, Ineffective heatsink design...
The Adata XPG Gammix S10 is a blessing for users with light workloads. The S10's performance is better than what SATA can deliver, and for many, the low performance state will never come into play. We really like this drive's price point, but it's onl...

While it falls into the entry-level NVMe SSD category, ADATA states that the XPG Gammix S10 was “built for professionals: ideal for gamers, PC enthusiasts, overclockers and visual effects editors.” So, we will see if that statement really holds true at th...
In the beginning of the review, we set to see out validation on a statement made by ADATA about the XPG Gammix S10. They said that it was “built for professionals.” But, is this really the case? We think after looking through the data we can finally come...

Consider: the average time to move a high-performance hard disk's read/write head to a new track will be less than 10ms, which seems pretty fast. But your CPU is galloping along at billions of cycles per second, and will spend a significant amount of its...

Over the last several months, while SSD enthusiasts have played a waiting game for the next truly high-end PCIe solid-state drive to hit the scene, a number of manufacturers have been playing a different game, namely, “How low can you go?” No, we're not r...

The ADATA XPG GAMMIX S10 is a M.2 NVMe SSD with very enthusiast-oriented branding and packaging, but it isn't even close to being ADATA's top NVMe SSD. Instead, it's a derivative of their entry-level XPG SX7000 M.2 NVMe SSD, adding only a heatspreader. Un...
M.2 PCIe SSDs are usually regarded as high-end SSDs, and the GAMMIX S10 plays into this with the styled heatspreader. But underneath, it's an entry-level NVMe SSD that does not reliably outperform SATA SSDs. The ADATA XPG GAMMIX S10 behaves quite similarl...
