AS SSD is a great free tool designed just for benching Solid State Drives. It performs an array of sequential read and write tests, as well as random read and write tests with sequential access times over a portion of the drive. It uses
incompressible data samples which many drives struggle with, so results can be viewed as the worst case scenarios.

AS SSD includes a sub-suite of benchmarks with various file pattern algorithms but this is difficult in trying to judge accurate performance figures.

In the AS-SSD benchmark test, the 9100 Pro read score of 5180 puts the drive into third place in the results table behind both versions of the Biwin Black Opal X570 Pro we've recently tested.
