IOMeter is another open source synthetic benchmarking tool which is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drive and solid state drive technology.
We use a custom Kitguru configuration for 4k random write to measure performance.
There are many different ways to measure IOPS performance, but with our own custom script, this particular drive scores 23,840 IOPS, which is significantly lower than many Sandforce 2281 powered drives we have reviewed in recent weeks.
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.
