The Samsung SSD 860 PRO also performed well in the various CrystalDiskMark tests. It battled for the top spot with the WD Blue in the sequential and high-queue depth 4K tests. The Samsung drive led the pack in the low-queue depth sequential test, however, only to trade victories with the Crucial BX300 in the 4K transfer test.
