Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB SSD Review

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.
AS SSD, as our first point of call, quickly shows the toggle NAND memory and SandForce combo that has been used in this series of drives gives low write speeds of 151.74MB/s. On the read performance side of things however, we do see that the SandForce controller is able to deliver well over the rated speed of 450MB/s.
