About Hardware SK hynix H9TQ27ADFTMC

SK hynix H9TQ27ADFTMC is an eMMC (embedded MultiMediaCard) based storage chip designed for mobile devices and embedded systems. With NAND Flash technology, it offers an efficient and power-efficient internal storage solution for devices with light to medium computing needs. It has become a common choice in entry-level smartphones, tablets, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices, thanks to its combination of sufficient capacity, high endurance, and long-term stable performance.

As an internal chip, the H9TQ27ADFTMC comes in a small yet reliable package, combining the controller and flash memory in a single unit for easy integration in consumer devices. One of the main advantages of eMMC storage like this is low power consumption and better data access latency compared to traditional SD card-based storage.

The test was conducted on an OPPO A5s device, a smartphone with a MediaTek Helio P35 (MT6765) processor, 3GB of RAM, and 32GB of internal storage. The operating system used was Android 8 with the ColorOS 5.2 interface. The test was conducted after the device had been in use for more than four years, so performance results may have decreased due to NAND Flash degradation over time.

In testing using the Cross Platform Disk Test (Mobile), the read speed of 114.31 MB/s and write speed of 13.07 MB/s were obtained. These results show that despite its age, the eMMC's read performance is still quite good for activities such as opening applications, loading the system, and streaming light content.

As a first-in-class internal storage solution, the SK hynix H9TQ27ADFTMC is suitable for devices that require fixed (non-removable) internal storage capacity with high efficiency, low cost, and sufficient endurance for daily use. Although its write speed is not as fast as more modern UFS technology, eMMC remains a popular choice due to its stability and ease of integration in many low- to mid-end devices.

Device: OPPO A5s
CPU: MediaTek MT6765 Helio P35
RAM: 3GB
Storage: 32GB
OS: Android 8, ColorOS 5.2

* The test was conducted after the device was approximately 4 years old, perhaps the performance has decreased

About Hardware Intel Iris Xe Graphics (80EUs, Tiger Lake) [Disk]

Intel Iris Xe Graphics (80EUs, Tiger Lake) is the integrated graphics solution (iGPU) of the 11th generation of Intel Core processors, specifically the Tiger Lake series. With 80 Execution Units (EUs) and support for Intel's latest graphics architecture, Iris Xe is capable of delivering significantly better performance than previous generations, including in terms of lightweight graphics rendering, 4K video playback, and casual gaming. Another advantage is its excellent power efficiency as it is directly integrated in the CPU, making it ideal for thin and power-saving laptops.

In this test, Iris Xe Graphics was configured to utilize part of its shared memory as a VRAMDisk. The VRAMDisk concept allows the use of a portion of VRAM-which in iGPUs like Iris Xe comes from the main system RAM-as high-speed storage. While not as fast as physical RAM-based RAMDisks, VRAMDisks on iGPUs still offer very high read/write speeds, mainly due to the optimization of the graphics architecture and the wide memory bandwidth.

The test was conducted on a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3i 14ITL6, with an Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor, 12GB DDR4 3200MHz dual channel RAM, and Windows 11 22H2 operating system. Based on data from dxdiag, the dynamically available VRAM reaches 6GB, and in this test, 2GB was allocated as VRAMDisk using GPU RAM Drive software.

Benchmark results from CrystalDiskMark show read speeds of 2758.52 MB/s and write speeds of 2109.43 MB/s. These speeds are significantly higher than SATA SSDs and even close to mid-range NVMe SSDs, making VRAMDisks on iGPUs an attractive experimental solution for temporary data caching, storage performance testing or other specialized scenarios. With a 128-bit bus width and support for 3200MHz DDR4 memory, Iris Xe VRAMDisk shows that even integrated graphics can be creatively utilized for high-speed storage tasks.
