This one over here is a box-standard hard drive, as we'd call it in the UK. This one over here is a SATA SSD; it's

about five times faster than this hard drive. Now, this NVMe drive over here is a PCIe 3.0 drive and

is about three times as fast as this SSD, and this one over here is a PCIe 4.0 SSD

and is about twice as fast as this PCIe 3.0. So, how do SSD speeds affect real-world Premiere Pro

performance, and which SSD should you get? Are you bottlenecking your system? Well, hopefully, this video is going to

help you understand that. If you're looking for a cheap Windows 10 OEM license, then look no further.

So let's talk about what's going to happen in this video. So I've done several tests on all of these SSDs and

hard drives on Premiere Pro, and seeing what would be the actual real-world performance difference. Can you feel the difference?

So first of all, we've got to say what the actual specs of these SSDs are. Now you can see that the hard drive over

here, the read speed is 105 megabytes per second and write speed 97; so basically, around 100

Both read and write speeds are 100 megabytes per second. Then this T-Force Vulcan, a 1-terabyte SSD, which is a SATA SSD,

now is much faster—about five times faster. The read speed is 552, and the write speed is 478.

We're getting quite fast now. What about this SSD over here? Now, I actually didn't use this SSD, but this is representative of

the SSD because the other SSD I left in the actual computer because it was too hard to get out. I'm just a little bit lazy.

But basically, what we used is a Samsung 950 Pro. It's a PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive, and

the read speed is 2579 megabytes per second, and the write speed is 1521 megabytes per

second. So basically, we're about three to five times faster speeds than a SATA SSD.

Then the PCIe 4.0 drive over here that I tested, which is exactly the same one tested over here, and the speed for that

is—the read speed is 5000 megabytes per second, 5005 to be exact, and the write speed is 4253 megabytes

per second. Insane speeds! The system I tested it in is my personal editing rig, which is—um—the Mac Pro killer, if you haven't

seen this on the channel. But I've slightly modified it ever since making the video, so now I'm running the 16-core Ryzen

3950X. Over there, by the way, to get PCIe 4.0 speeds, you need a Ryzen system at this point of

making the video. I think until 11th gen comes out this year, it should have PCIe 4.0

as well, but Ryzen systems have had it for quite a while now. I'm running the MSI Creator X570 motherboard and

the 3070 Founders Edition, which I ripped out from the Owl build. If you know, you know the PC.

I'm building it. I put it in their personal editing station because the build is just kind of

sitting around at the moment, waiting to be bought. So that's uh, the system I've been using.  These all

with... So first of all, the file import speed. So Premiere Pro is running on a separate PCIe 4.0 drive, so that the

actual program or system isn't the bottleneck. And I've put some, like about 35

gigabytes worth of just video footage onto that drive, and then I'm pulling them all into separate... all of these drives, all of

the projects on these drives, I've separated. So all the files and everything that's with it are

included inside this drive. Nothing is stored on any other drive, so it's purely testing the drive's speed.

The project I'm actually testing on is the black and white build, the 5900X build, the best, you know, pro-create this

PC for 2021. And the second part of it, which is uh, what I'm going through all the parts of,

which is why I did this, but in there there's a lot of different B-roll and things like that. So that's

why I'm using that project, which is quite a complicated project and it takes quite a lot of resources to run it. So I'm pulling the

files, the imported files, from the operating system PCIe 4.0 drive, which is, you know, one of those Sabrent Rocket drives,

a very fast drive as well. In terms of the import speed, the PCIe 4.0, 3.0, and the SATA SSD, they all do it

literally the same speed. Like I'm talking about a three-millisecond difference: 2.14 seconds was this one, and then

these are 2.17 seconds. So very, very fast import speed, whereas this hard drive over here does it much, much slower at

24.22 seconds, which is 11 times as slow as the rest of them. Now, what about opening the project? So the project is

stored on there; everything is off; nothing else is running on the computer. Double-click on the project and then start the timer,

see which one opens the project faster and loads all the previews of the actual, you know, files—like all the

video and, you know, footage that is included in the project. Now, this is a bit more interesting. Okay, this PCIE 4.0 has quite a big win over

the rest of them, and it does it in one minute and seven seconds. The second place is actually, interestingly enough,

not the PCIE 3.0, but actually this SSD over here, which is one minute and 19

seconds—so 12 seconds slower than this PCIE 4.0—and then after that comes the PCIE 3.0 at

one minute and 27 seconds, and then miles later comes this hard drive at one minute and 45

seconds. We're kind of proving the point that the NVMe drives are faster, but let's keep going. Now, what about the

export speed? So what I basically did was [use] the same project that I had over there, the first 10 minutes of it, and then

exported it from the same drive to the same drive as well, to see if that somehow caps the system. Now, I did two tests

because I tested it with Premiere Pro 2020 and then Premiere Pro 2021, which is the

new version, you know, version 15.0. First of all, the 2020 version: the interesting thing is the fastest

export was on the actual PCIE 3.0 drive, which is 7 minutes and 25 seconds, which is still very, very

impressive compared to the 10-minute 4K timeline, exporting it to 4K at one pass.

so hardware acceleration is actually enabled and 45 megabits per second render at maximum bit depth and maximum render quality. So the same PCIe 3.0 is the fastest and quite a bit faster, actually—7 minutes 25 seconds.

Then comes the PCIe 4.0 drive at 8 minutes and 12 seconds; another half a minute later, then comes the SSD at 9 minutes and 28 seconds, and then comes the hard drive at

11 minutes and 6 seconds. So, interestingly, on the older version of Premiere Pro, the first place is kind of swapped over here. And when moving to the newer version of Premiere Pro, I couldn't get the PCIe 3.0 to be as fast as

previously. On the PCIe 3.0, which makes me think that there's some kind of odd thing going on with that, because I did the test on the previous Premiere Pro a few times,

and the times fluctuated quite a lot—how fast it is. It's never exactly in the same ballpark; within a few seconds, it's sometimes a bit faster, sometimes a bit slower, which is a little bit

odd. But moving on to the newer version of Premiere Pro—version 15.0—the results start to become more stable and similar to what's happening now. On the latest

Premiere Pro version, the PCIe 4.0 is the fastest drive, and we've actually improved the export setting since the last Premiere Pro version by about eight seconds. Now, it's not much on a 10-minute export, but it could be a

lot when you're exporting an hour of footage. The 4.0 drive, now on the new...

Premiere Pro took eight minutes and four seconds.  The second-place drives were exactly the same—eight minutes and eight seconds—a four-second difference. The hard drive took 10 minutes and 23 seconds, over two minutes slower than the SSDs.

The T-Force and Sabre Rocket both finished in eight minutes and eight seconds.

The hard drive was 10 minutes and 23 seconds, considerably slower—over two minutes slower than the others. Interestingly, it was still faster than the previous version of Premiere Pro.

This suggests either the export engine in the new Premiere Pro has been improved, or some bugs have been fixed, resulting in faster export times.

Now, let's look at real-world timeline performance.  Does using these different storage options feel different? Here's what I found.

I tested playback speed with Sony a7S II footage, which is around 100–150, sometimes 200 Mbps.  If you use footage with a higher bitrate, the difference will be even greater.

Higher bitrate video means larger files, placing a heavier load on the SSD or hard drive.  The bigger the files, the harder they are to read.

With this footage, the differences were apparent. But if you're using RED or Canon RAW, for example—with much higher bitrates, perhaps closer to a gigabit per second—the differences between these SSDs and the hard drive will be even more pronounced.

As you can see, our hard drive is at 100% usage.  It's clearly bottlenecking, struggling to load media. It's very laggy.

The hard drive is definitely a bottleneck here. Let's look at the results.

Timeline performance now, so like, there are bits coming up, but if you see, look, the hard drive is often 99% used, 100% used, so it's

bottlenecking definitely, and it's all right, but it's nothing good. Yeah, it's not like anything

amazing. You could do any work with it, but it would be kind of a pain because it's just slow.

SATA SSD. Okay, things are definitely happening faster. I can see a preview over here already,

but it's probably actually reading them all from the SSD and writing them to the RAM because a lot of RAM has been used, is loading

all the previews and stuff into the RAM for a second. Okay, that's up. That is much faster

than our hard drive. Let's pull this back so we can see how fast all of these previews over here are

linked up as well. Timeline performance, I mean, definitely better. There's—it does feel like there are more frames being produced

just as I'm skimming over this timeline. The fastest thing is like when you when you just click on the timeline

somewhere and then how fast the picture appears, because on the hard drive it was much slower. It probably is about

five times faster, actually. Now that's not bad. Editing experience now, it's quite all right, and I don't expect it to like

do the preview so faster than the timeline because it's a 4K timeline, lots of color grading, multicam

in there, so it's playing back actually multiple 4K clips, because each one of those is actually two clips, plus anything on

top. It's—it's getting complicated. Do not—this is now quite not that bad, actually. Okay, it doesn't

necessarily feel faster than the SATA SSD at the moment, so let's have a look at the timeline performance.

Okay, okay, that does feel snappy. And the timeline, before and when you just click on a random place,

and how fast the actual picture follows the click is definitely... you can feel it being faster than the

SATA SSD. And the scrubbing through as well, it does feel like it's producing more frames than

the SATA SSD. Actually, yeah, it does feel faster, definitely compared to the SATA SSD. But the biggest difference is when you

click on the timeline and then how fast the picture appears; that is where you can feel the difference.

So now let's have a look at the timeline performance. At first, I don't feel the difference.

In fact, it's completely lagging on the first part. Let's have a look. Okay, okay, that is funny, actually, because if
