To test the drive performance today we are using an Intel Core i7 990X Extreme Edition system.
Processor: Core i7 990X Extreme Edition @ 4.8ghz.
Cooling: Corsair H100 Liquid Cooler.
Motherboard: Asus Rampage III Black Edition.
Chassis: Lian Li X2000F.
Power Supply: ADATA 1200W.
Memory: (6 x 4GB) 24GB Visiontek DDR3 1866mhz (10-10-10-24).
Storage: Memoright 240GB SSD & 2TB Samsung storage drive.
Monitors: Dell U3011.
Comparison Products:
ADATA Nobility N005 Pro 64GB Flash Drive.
Kingston 64GB DT Ultimate Drive.
1TB USB 3.0 Toshiba HDD.
We perform each test multiple times to ensure that abnormalities don’t enter into the test results.
First we copied a folder containing 12 MKV files, totaling 8GB in size. We copied them to and from each of the drives via an internal sata based Memoright 240GB SSD.
We recorded a staggering 260 MB/s from the new Kingston Datatraveler HyperX 3.0 64 GB drive. We ran the test many times and even checked with another computer because these results are miles ahead of anything else we have tested to date within this sector.
Next we copied a folder with many mixed files, ranging in size from simple text based Word documents to several 100 MB video files. The folder size is 1GB. We record the average time taken then work out the speeds of the drives. Again we copy via an internal sata based Memoright 240GB SSD.
With a mixed file size folder, results drop significantly, but they are still incredible, and way ahead of competing products we have used today.
Those are some crazy speeds for a flash drive !
HyperX is a good name for it, massively costly to buy though. £130? Can buy an SSD for that now. (not the same thing I know, just saying)./
lol, I have an old USB 1.1 drive and it does me fine for backups of small data files. Very nice drive, might consider a new one, but not one of these, out of my price range by a long shot
Any chance you could add a database style test to the suite you use? would really be useful for me.
I bought my computer off ebay a few years ago and its not super old or anything it just can kind a bare if you know what i mean. now when i plug in my kingston flash drive or my ipod or my printer or web cam they all work just fine. the only problem seems to be a little bubble that pops up telling me that the device can run faster and asks. if it should look for a faster port I like whatever and let it but it doesn’t find one. now ive had no real problems with it. Thanks
