Compressible Data Test
Contents
As you will have gathered from the previous page, we measured the performance of each drive using CrystalDiskMark.
It is important to note that we connected the SSDs to a SATA-600 port on our motherboard rather than a SATA-300 port, which could cause performance limitations.
First, we set CrystalDiskMark to “All 0x00 Fill mode” to evaluate the performance of the SSD when dealing with compressible data.
On the sequential read test, the SSD PLUS was 16% faster than the V300.
On the sequential write test, the Kingston V300 was 127% faster than the SanDisk model.
On the random read test with 512 kiB blocks, the model from Kingston was 34% faster than the SSD PLUS.
On the random write test with 512 kiB blocks, the Kingston SSDNow V300 was 124% faster than the SSD PLUS.
On the random read test with 4 kiB blocks, the V300 was 47% faster than the SanDisk SSD PLUS.
On the random write test with 4 kiB blocks, both models had similar performances.
On the random read test with 4 kiB blocks and queue depth 32, the model from SanDisk was 83% faster than the V300.
On the random write test with 4 kiB blocks and queue depth of 32, the Kingston V300 was 67% faster than the SSD PLUS.
