Read speed:
sequential read speed 14700 MB/s 14700 MB/s
random read speed 2200000 IOPS 1850000 IOPS

Both the Kingston Fury Renegade G5 2TB and the Samsung 9100 Pro 1TB offer the same sequential read speed of 14700 MB/s, meaning that in terms of sequential data transfer, there is no difference between the two products.

When it comes to random read speed, the Kingston Fury Renegade G5 2TB has a slightly higher value at 2200000 IOPS compared to the Samsung 9100 Pro 1TB, which offers 1850000 IOPS. This means that the Kingston drive is capable of handling more random read operations per second than the Samsung model.

Overall, while both drives perform equally in sequential read speed, the Kingston Fury Renegade G5 2TB has the advantage in random read speed.

Write speed:
sequential write speed 14000 MB/s 13300 MB/s
random write speed 2200000 IOPS 2600000 IOPS

The Kingston Fury Renegade G5 2TB offers a sequential write speed of 14000 MB/s, while the Samsung 9100 Pro 1TB has a slightly lower sequential write speed of 13300 MB/s. This means the Kingston drive is marginally faster in sequential write operations.

For random write speeds, the Kingston Fury Renegade G5 2TB and Samsung 9100 Pro 1TB show the opposite trend. The Kingston drive reaches 2200000 IOPS, while the Samsung drive performs better at 2600000 IOPS. This gives the Samsung drive a higher capacity for random write operations per second.

In summary, the Kingston drive leads in sequential write speed, while the Samsung drive excels in random write speed.
