ATTO v2.41 & AS SSD Benchmarks
ATTO is one of the oldest hard drive benchmarks that is still used today. ATTO measures transfers across a specific volume length. It measures raw transfer rates for both reads and writes and places the data into graphs that you can easily interpret. The test was run with the default runs of 0.5kb through 8192kb transfer sizes with the total length being 256mb.
Benchmark Results: The Kingston 30GB V Series Boot SSD graph looks a little funky if you are used to seeing these. Typically, there is a tighter spread between the reads and writes but for this drive, the numbers come out pretty close to rated specs.
Again, below are some comparison numbers for other SSD's we have tested. Again, although these were run on another system, the I/O results should be pretty close for comparison to the data above.
We have been running the AS SSD
Benchmark app for nearly a year now and found
that it gives a broad result set. Many testers are using the 4k file size read/write results for the IO Meter benchmark which is a old tool and the AS SSD benchmark shows the same metric in its results set.
Benchmark Results: Again, the sequential reads and writes were pretty much on par with the specifications from Kingston but the 4k results were among the lowest we've seen.
