AS SSD Benchmark

AS-SSD (2.0.6485.19676) Benchmark:

We have been running the AS-SSD Benchmark app for over some time now and found that it gives a broad result set. The programmer has worked very hard on this software and continues to make updates often so if you use it, show him some love and send him a donation. There are now three tests that are found within the tool and we’ll show the results from all three of them.

AS SSD – Patriot Scorch 256GB:

Benchmark Results: On AS SSD, the Patriot Scorch 256GB drive had an overall score of 2298 points with sequential read speeds of 1449MB/s and 812 MB/s write. The 4K random results were at 41.57 MB/s read and 99.17 MB/s write.

AS SSD Copy – Patriot Scorch 256GB:

Benchmark Results: The copy benchmark test results were ranging from 613MB/s in the Program to 882 MB/s in the ISO benchmark.

AS SSD Compression – Patriot Scorch 256GB:

Benchmark Results: For this benchmark chart you would ideally want to see a straight line as you dont want any compression performance loss as the test goes from 0% compressible to 100% compressible data during the benchmark test period. The Patriot Scorch 256GB drive performed really didn’t perform too hot on this benchmark as we discovered compression does impact read speeds and the write speed were all over the place with dips down to 339 MB/s with peaks around 950 MB/s.
