AMD Radeon R7 240GB 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 the way I’m testing with AS SSD a little, to now give us a clearer picture as to how the drive will perform on all tests. Special the copy test is one that I think is relevant on the consumer level, as it gives the user a view into one of the operations he’s going to do many times.

The AMD Radeon R7 240GB Solid State Drive convinces us clearly in all our AS SSD Benchmarks, but especially in the compression test. The drive is showing some impressive figures above 450MB/s. The Barefoot controller and custom firmware are doing a great job here.
