Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.1 x64.
Incompressible data performance is weak, especially in regards to write performance. Sequential read performance is just shy of 500 MB/s which is a good result.
As we do with all our SSD reviews, we enable ‘compressible’ data mode, called ’0×00′. The performance gains with this specific drive are very noticeable, particularly with the sequential write performance, which increases from 142 MB/s to over 480 MB/s.
Above, some compares with other leading solid state drives which we have reviewed in the last couple of months.
Slightly disappointing as the result show. never heard of the company either.
Fair review. I have to admit ive been looking outside the ‘sandforce’ masses of drives currently available as I would prefer to get good performance with both forms of data, rather than just compressible. Samsung new series of drives appeals to me.
