Corsair Nova Series V128 SSD Performance Review

HD Tune Pro v4.01

HD Tune Pro 4.01 is an extended version of HD Tune which includes many
new features such as write benchmark, secure erasing, AAM setting,
folder usage view, disk monitor, command line parameters and file
benchmark.

Benchmark Results: Very good read scores for the Corsair Nova and nice steady and even scores with barely any fluctuation at all. This usually translates into consistent real-world performance. The average exceeds the results Corsair provided us from their own in-house testing by about 10MB/s.

Benchmark Results: Writes are a little choppy here with a variance of 40MB/s between the min and max. However, the scores follow right along with the Patriot Torqx drive which employs the same controller.

Benchmark Results: The file benchmark test shows a nice ramp up in reads and writes with steady performance on the high end of the file sizes.
