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. We use the same test, but for random read performance also.
IOMeter performance is exceptional in both read and write tests. Every manufacturer will test these drives slightly differently, but our results are very close to the OCZ claims. By comparison the OCZ Octane 512GB with fw 1.13 scored 28,041 IOPS in our 4k random read test.
id like to see how the 128GB fares, but it looks a lot worse. still thats incredible performance if you can afford 512gb.
looks like a dream drive for a server relying on database operations daily.
Yeah ill have to get me one of these for the new system. great review, IOPS is killer. thanks.
Sandforce I dont trust, never have too many issues.
They got it right this time. Looks like a good price to performance drive. The quicker they move away from Sandrorce the more we can all sleep better at night. I bought a Corsair FOrce on sandforce and it was nothing but trouble from day one.
Im pleased for OCZ. they got burned badly with Sandforce and have placed a lot of resources into this platform. Without them the SSD market would be years behind the point it is at now.
Excellent read, thanks.
