Acer FA300 vs Biwin NV7400: Comparison

What is the difference between Acer FA300 and Biwin NV7400?

Start with sequential read, because it is the widest measured gap between them: Acer FA300 11000 MB/s against Biwin NV7400 7400 MB/s, 33% in favour of Acer FA300. The benchmark result agrees. Speed Score puts Acer FA300 9% ahead, 8.5 against 7.7. Add sequential write to that, 10000 MB/s on the Acer FA300 versus 6500 MB/s on the Biwin NV7400, and the pattern holds. They differ on bus interface too, PCIe 5.0 x4 on the Acer FA300 versus PCIe 4.0 x4 on the Biwin NV7400. Dram cache is not the same on both, DRAM-less on the Acer FA300 versus DRAM-less with HMB on the Biwin NV7400. On nand layers there is little in it, 218 on the Acer FA300 versus 232 on the Biwin NV7400. They differ on controller too, SM2504XT on the Acer FA300 versus MAP1602A on the Biwin NV7400. Controller vendor is not the same on both, Silicon Motion on the Acer FA300 versus Maxio on the Biwin NV7400. There is a split on nand vendor as well, Kioxia on the Acer FA300 versus Micron on the Biwin NV7400.

What Acer FA300 and Biwin NV7400 have in common

Where they agree, they agree completely, capacity, nand type, form factor and drive type included, so the decision does not turn on any of those.
