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.
We can see the strength of the Corsair Neutron 240GB drives when dealing with incompressible data, as they are only outperformed by the Vertex 4 512GB in our chart above. Class leading results.
Some other comparisons from leading manufacturer drives, which we have tested 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…..
