TLD LARS:

The write speed is 6600MB/s peak per drive, that is DDR 2 speeds.

for a single channel, sure. RAM isn't filled stick by stick though, its strobed across all dimms in a channel and per channel.

Yeah, that is why I am not impressed with the write speed on these disks used. That is also why I tried to explain to Schmidtbag, that single channel memory is not something that should be done and should not be used to compare transfer speeds of Storage vs Memory. I initially tried to explain that budget DDR4 dual channel will absolutely demolish these drive speeds, if the dataset is ran through multiple times or the dataset needs multiple passes of work before it is delivered back to storage. But I guess the drives can be used as a MMO subscription server, game launcher like steam or file server, that mostly uses read performance to distribute data to many users.
