ASUS P8Z77-V PRO Thunderbolt Thunderbolt speed test benchmark
We have received the ASUS P8Z77-V Pro Thunderbolt motherboard and did a quick test on it’s thunderbolt speed.
Using the Seagate Thunderbolt Adapter with Kingston HyperX 3K 120GB with Apple Thunderbolt cable. The device is connected to the single port on the ASUS motherboard.
From ATTO Disk Benchmark, the performance is similar to what we did for Gigabyte thunderbolt board Z77X-UP5TH. The performance is better than USB 3.0 but slower than SATA 6Gbps (if drive is connected using a USB docking station / direct connection to SATA port). Below are the results.
Ever thought about that the Seagate Thunderbolt SSD Carrier is not the fastest thing on Planet?!?
