Kingston HyperX 3K 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 AS SSD a little to now give us a clearer picture as to how the drive will perform given variable levels of file compression.

We have known for a long time that incompressible data and SandForce controllers don’t necessarily go hand in hand, but what we can see is that as the percentage of compression goes up, the write speed goes up along an even slope. Read performance is less affected by compression although we can see that there is a slightly higher level of performance seen with compressible data as expected.
