Test and compare the gaming performance of your SSD with the 3DMark Storage Benchmark. It supports all the latest storage technologies and tests practical, real-world gaming performance such as loading or installing games, saving, and recording gameplay.

3DMark Storage

Benchmark your SSD

With fast modern SSD storage, loading times are shorter, levels restart faster, and there are fewer interruptions to your gameplay. PC gamers can now choose from a wide range of high-performance storage options from the fastest PCI Express 4.0 and NVMe devices to cheaper SATA SSDs and high-capacity hybrid drives.

The 3DMark Storage Benchmark DLC extends 3DMark with a dedicated component test for measuring the gaming performance of your storage hardware. It supports all the latest storage technologies and tests practical, real-world gaming performance for activities such as loading games, saving progress, installing game files, and recording gameplay video streams.

3DMark Storage Benchmark system requirements

OS: Windows 10, 64-bit with Fall Creators Update (version 1709)
Processor: 3 GHz quad-core*
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Storage: 150 MB to install, 30 GB free space to run**

  • Modern storage hardware is so fast that its performance can be limited by the CPU. While this benchmark will run on slower processors with fewer cores, we recommend using a 3.0 GHz quad-core processor or better when testing ultra-fast storage.
    ** Test data is removed when the benchmark ends.
