Impressive 565/525 MBps read/write speed with ATTO, SATA 6Gb/s controller supports TRIM and NCQ, 3-Year ADATA product warranty support, Offered in 128/256/512GB/1TB storage capacities, Lightweight compact storage solution, Resistant to extreme shock impa
Less impressive continuous linear write performance, Some manufacturers offer 5+ years of warranty support
Our first rating is performance, which compares how effective the ADATA SSD Ultimate SU800 performs in benchmark operations against competing SATA-based solid state drive storage solutions. For reference, ADATA specifications suggest 560 MB/s maximum read...
So the SU800 is an exciting SSD simply because of the introduction of 3D NAND. By stacking, the capacities of NAND are going up, allowing for fewer chips being used and it will eventually mean higher drive capacities being available and lower costs. You...

As shown by the test results in some sections at ADATA got to realize an interesting drive. The very first paragraph certainly be called the use of TLC 3D NAND in the current realities of its availability and distribution. It is interesting to observe tha...

Judged against other entry-level SATA SSD, the ADATA Ultimate SU800 does not offer many significant performance improvements from its use of Micron 3D TLC NAND. Even if Micron's 3D TLC were substantially faster than the planar TLC it is competing against...
Abstract: In 2012 I tested the ADATA SP900 SSD and back then almost every drive had the SandForce controller. Moving on to 2016, and things have evolved a lot. Not only have we more options on the controller of the SSD but we also have moved forward with NAND techn...

Adata SSD Toolbox, Acronis Data Migration
Micron 384Gbit 3D TLC NAND, Low throughput, High latency, Low notebook battery life
The Adata Ultimate SU800 128GB is the weakest of the three models we tested. This drive costs only $20 less than the 256GB drive. We couldn't recommend this model to anyone given the slight price difference. The SU800 128GB also suffers from very high...

Adata's SU800 got off to a rocky start with our IOMeter sequential write test, but its real-world performance should have at least partially made up for that. Let's see where it lands overall. To compare each drive, we take the geometric mean of a basket...
Available in 128GB, 256GB, 512GB and 1TB capacities, Silicon Motion SM2258 controller, Micron 3D TLC NAND, Good sequential and random read and write performance, Huge SLC cache, RAID Engine, Data Shaping and LDPC ECC technologies, Ultra-slim form factor,
Write speed drops considerably when SLC cache is full, Does not support hardware based encryption
While not the fastest or most feature packed SSD to come through the 'Labs, the ADATA Ultimate SU800 delivers a lot of bang for your buck. The drive combines Silicon Motion's SM2258 controller with Micron's 3D TLC NAND to deliver good performance and a hi...
Competitive pricing, Good software, Fast sequential reads
Shoppers must register to get "bundled" migration-software key, Not the fastest or the cheapest SSD
The SU800 isn't quite the "ultimate" anything, but it is a decently performing SSD at a competitive price, thanks to its use of 3D TLC NAND. Read More…...
