Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.1 x64.
Overall performance is certainly impressive, especially when we factor in that the default test deals with incompressible data. Both drives deliver good results, although the GTX is stronger overall with write performance.
We switch to 0x00 mode, which deals with compressible data. Much like the OCZ Indilinx Everest 2 controller, these results are impressively strong in both modes.
Above, some included compares from other leading solid state drives which we have reviewed in recent months.
very sexy indeed. interesting to see them only releasing 120gb and 240gb. The GTX has space on the rear of the PCB for more chips? 480GB at £330 would be great.
Shame they aren’t bundling acronis with the drives, well worth an inclusion IMO for mirroring the boot drive.
placed an order for a GTX. thanks.
Great, but is the ordinary version well priced? the GTX is only a few quid extra, seems a better deal when facotring in write perf,.
ive the 120gb GTX in my sights next week…..
