SiSoftware Sandra 2010

SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. Sandra provides most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software. In order to test the hard drive, SiSoftware Sandra 2010c was used as part of the test suite. The graphical results that Sandra gives you after the test is completed nicely shows how drives perform over time and where on the drive the performance is seen.

Benchmark Results: The RealSSD C300 256GB SSD did great in Sandra 2010 and was found to have an average read score of 333MB/s with a write score of 209MB/s. The read access times also looked solid, but the write access times were a little longer than we expected.

Sandra Benchmark Results

Comparison Chart: The Crucial RealSSD C300 was hands down the fastest drive that we have ever seen in Sandra 2010. As fast as the C300 was in the drive index tests it had slower random access write times compared to any of the other drives!
