&gt;  NVMe SSDs (like those in a 2015 MacBook Pro) reads at &gt;1300 MB&#x2F;s [2].<p>No joke. Just got an new MBP for work. Before had a spinning disk (well hybrid). Was running some silly benchmarks that I ran before and clocked my disk throughput at about 100MB&#x2F;s. On MBP got 800MB&#x2F;s. I thought something broke (was hitting page cache or some trickery like that) or didn&#x27;t compile things right. But no, tried other tools, looked online and it seemed correct. It really surprised me.
