About Hardware AMD Radeon HD 7310 IGPU VRAM Disk

The AMD Radeon HD 7310 is an integrated GPU (iGPU) based on the Terascale 2 architecture embedded in some early generation E1 series APUs, such as the AMD E1-1200. With 80 Stream Processors, this GPU is designed for light tasks such as video playback, basic computing, and casual gaming with low graphics settings. Despite being an entry-level GPU and being quite old, the Radeon HD 7310 is still able to operate well for basic needs and certain technical experiments.

In this test using an HP 1000 1b05au device paired with an AMD E1-1200 processor, 4GB DDR3 RAM, and Windows 7 operating system, an interesting experiment was conducted by converting part of the VRAM allocation into a VRAMDisk using specialized GPU RAM Drive software.

VRAMDisk is a method that utilizes VRAM capacity as high-speed temporary storage, just like RAMDisk but with graphics memory. In this configuration, of the total VRAM of 384MB (plus shared memory), about 128MB was set aside to be used as a VRAMDisk. Despite the small capacity, the read and write speeds were quite surprising:

• CrystalDiskMark:
  • Read: 393.23 MB/s
  • Write: 393.66 MB/s

This figure shows that even using an older generation GPU with DDR3 memory and a 128-bit interface, the VRAM still has enough bandwidth for light cache tasks or fast storage experiments. This technology is not intended for daily use, but it can be an interesting alternative for technical purposes, testing, or short-term local access speeds of small files.

Given its limitations-both in terms of VRAM capacity, iGPU performance, and modern driver support-the AMD Radeon HD 7310 is definitely not an option for gaming or heavy workloads right now. However, experiments like this VRAMDisk show that legacy devices can still be creatively utilized in certain contexts, especially in resource-constrained environments.

About Hardware Samsung KMQD60013M-B318

Samsung KMQD60013M-B318 is a 32GB eMMC (embedded MultiMediaCard) storage module designed for mobile devices, tablets, and embedded systems with a need for reliable, efficient, and affordable internal storage. Featuring eMMC 5.1 technology, the module delivers significant improvements in read/write speed and power efficiency over previous generation eMMC versions, making it a great choice for consistently supporting operating system and application performance.

The module uses Samsung's proven NAND flash memory, providing better stability, durability and power consumption efficiency over the long term. Its compact design also allows for seamless integration in embedded systems and entry- to mid-range smartphones, without sacrificing the basic performance required for everyday needs such as opening applications, storing photos/videos, and performing system updates.

The test was conducted using a Realme C2 device, equipped with a MediaTek MT6762V SoC (Helio P22), 2GB of RAM, and 32GB of Samsung eMMC 5.1 KMQD60013M-B318 internal storage. The system runs on Android 9 with the ColorOS 6 interface, giving a real sense of how this eMMC performs in real-world use.

Benchmark results show that this storage module delivers quite responsive performance for its class. In tests using AnTuTu Benchmark v10 (Mobile) for storage tests, the Samsung KMQD60013M-B318 recorded read speeds of up to 183.7 MB/s and write speeds of 40.0 MB/s, which is sufficient to ensure a smooth user experience in running applications or moving between menus.

Meanwhile, in the Cross Platform Disk Test, the results obtained were 80.64 MB/s (read) and 12.15 MB/s (write), reflecting actual performance in cross-platform scenarios or mixed load usage. Testing with PCMark for Android - Storage 2.0 also gave numbers close to AnTuTu's results, with 182.94 MB/s for read and 13.34 MB/s for write, showing consistent performance in various synthetic tests.

Overall, the Samsung KMQD60013M-B318 32GB eMMC 5.1 is an economical yet competent internal storage solution, suitable for use in entry-level mobile devices that prioritize power efficiency, long-term reliability, and stable base performance. Whether used in smartphones, IoT devices, or other embedded systems, this module offers added value with Samsung's signature quality.
