AS SSD Benchmark

AS-SSD (1.7.4739.38088) Benchmark:

We have been running the AS-SSD Benchmark app for over some time now and found that it gives a broad result set. The programmer has worked very hard on this software and continues to make updates often so if you use it, show him some love and send him a donation. There are now three tests that are found within the tool and we’ll show the results from all three of them.

Benchmark Results: For this benchmark chart you would ideally want to see a straight line as you don’t want any compression performance loss as the test goes from 0% compressible to 100% compressible data during the benchmark test period. Performance on the Transcend SSD370 128GBGB drive appeared to be pretty pretty flat which tells us that this drive performs the same with both incompressible (0%) and compressible (100%) data. The Transcend SSD370 128GB drive topped out at around 528MB/s read and 162MB/s write.
