Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V3.0.1 x64.
4K QD32 performance is very strong, averaging right at the top of our chart. A very strong result if you are dealing regularly with incompressible data.
The controller is able to deal with compressible data at the same level as incompressible. Very strong results all around.
Above, some included compares from other leading solid state drives which we have reviewed in the last year.
Excellent price really, I know it is a lot of cash, but its a lot of capacity too. IOPS is very good.
I think the 500GB is the best price really for most people and its still big enough to be used for a lot of things.
only £240. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-500GB-Basic-Solid-State/dp/B00E3915Y4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1386319792&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+evo+500gb
