ADATA Premier Pro SP920 256GB Solid State Drive Review

AS SSD
The AS SSD software determines the performance of Solid State Drives (SSD). The tool contains five synthetic and three practice tests. The synthetic tests determine the sequential and random read and write performance of the SSD. These tests are performed without using the operating system caches. In Sequential tests the program measures the time it takes to read and write a 1GB file respectively. With most of the benchmark tests showing peak performance from an SSD, I’ve changed AS SSD a little to now give us a clearer picture as to how the drive will perform given variable levels of file compression.

Handling data with varying compression is part of the SP920’s design brief and naturally we expect to see a near flat line as the level of compression is raised. The results show just that and we are by no means disappointed by the results.
