SiSoft Sandra 2010 Disk Benchmark
We used a couple of benchmarks to test the sequential and random read & write of the device. Our test system comprises of the following
-ASRock X58 Extreme6 Mainboard
-Intel Core i7 965 processor
-Kingston HyperX 6GB DDR3-1866
-PowerColor Radeon HD 4850
-Hitachi 7K50 HDD as OS drive
The system is configured to run in AHCI mode.
SiSoft Benchmark
We ran the HDD/SSD benchmark test for read and write.
Read
In the read test, the SSD achieve 461.35MB/s. This score is 61% faster than the OCZ Vertex2 we reviewed sometime ago. The OCZ Vertex2 scored an average of 258.48MB/s. At 461.36MB/s , it already exceeded the theoritical limit of SATAII interface speed. On the other hand, a Kingston V series SNV425-S2/64GB only achieved 227MB/s in the same test. Interestingly, the Kingston random access time is only 20us compared to 60us on the OCZ vertex II and 90us on the RevoDrive.
Write
With the RevoDrive, we achieve a score of 313.6MB/s. OCZ Vertex 2 60GB SSD returns a result of 209MB/s. Kingston V series SNV425-S2/64GB only achieved 165MB/s in the same test. Random access time is at 70us just like Kingston V series with Vertex 2 scoring 120us for random write.
