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. 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 990 Pro's read score was just enough to see it above the 980 Pro in our results chart. However, its write score of 2943 was some 112 points better than the previous generation drive.
