'''Test Conditions'''
* '''System board details:''' Raspberry Pi 5 Model B Rev 1.0, 4G RAM
* '''Interface board details:''' X10xx Series NVMe Shield
* '''Operation system:''' Raspberry Pi OS with desktop (Debian13 (trixie), 64bit, Release date: 4 Dec 2025)
* '''Storage details:''' Netac N930E-PRO M.2 NVMe 128GB, Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500G
'''Testing the SSD speed from command line with dd'''
* 1) To test the write speed, writing 1 GB of data in 10 blocks of 100 MB
* 2) To test the read speed, use dd to read our entire TestingFile file generated from the last command, in 10 blocks of 100 MB each
'''Run at PCIe 2.0'''
[[File:X100x dd test pcie2.0.png]]
'''Run at PCIe 3.0'''
[[File:X100x dd test pcie3.0.png]]
As seen above, the final results with the dd command are:
* '''Write speed:''' 379 MB/s at PCIe 2.0, 603MB/s at PCIe 3.0
* '''Read speed:''' 415 MB/s at PCie 2.0, 781MB/s at PCIe 3.0
'''Testing disk drive read speed with hdparm'''
* '''Run at PCIe 2.0, average read rate:''' 395.5 MB/s (3 samples)
[[File:X100x hdparm test pcie2.0.png]]


*'''Run at PCIe 3.0, average read rate:''' 768.3 MB/s (3 samples)
