ssd speed on m2 macbook pro

hi, i've read that the new MacBook Pro has a slower ssd installed, and i'm wondering if anyone can confirm the read/write speed on the new m2 13 inch base model. I use Black Magic Disk Speed Test on all my drives, and it helps me keep everything running optimally. i use FCP, Motion, Logic Pro, as well as

all Serif Apps for photos and design, so i want to have a fast ssd. 2 reviews say the internal is slower than the external raids, so i want to check via actual numbers. this computer gives me 2893 read and 2780 write internally, and 2805 read as well as 2400 write on my Thunderbolt 3 drives. Anyone able to help with new M2 MacBook Pro model SSD speeds would be greatly appreciated.

MacBook Pro Apple Silicon

The SSD's read and write speeds are design basis attributes; you can't change them. They may operate at different speeds from time too time depending on many factors, but that too is by design.


No app that measures and reports is going to improve anything. Different apps will report different speeds and performances under similar conditions because they do things differently, not because thy are adjusting anything.
