It can be difficult to benchmark an SSHD in order to show its true potential and it will be AIDA, IOmeter, and BootRacer that will show us the proper results. I’ve still chosen to include all the other benchmarks as they still give a base for comparison even though they don’t show the drives real strength.
On the following pages, I’ll be showing the screenshot of a drive filled 75% with data where it is possible. Some benchmarks require me to run it off an unpartitioned drive, hence I can not fill it with data. The benchmarks that allow me to fill the drive with data will be performed with 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% data on the drive.
