AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed with a 5 GB file. A total score of 1872 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	732,52 MB/s	695,37 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	42,92 MB/s	140,37 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	696,20 MB/s	423,62 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,027 ms	0,578 ms

Total score	1872

Copy Performance Test

A common everyday situation is simulated here. Three test folders are created:

• ISO (folder with two large files)
• Program (folder with many small files)
• Game (folder with small and large files)

The three folders are copied using the Windows Copy command (the cache remains enabled). The practical test of February 14, 2022 shows the performance for simultaneous write and read operations. The lower the duration, the better the performance.

AS SSD Copy-Benchmark	Transfer rate:	Duration:
ISO two large files	1547,26 MB/s	1,49 s
Program many small files	747,60 MB/s	9,42 s
Game small and large files	708,94 MB/s	9,74 s

Compression Performance Test

Here, the writing and reading speed of the the Intenso SSDSSD is measured depending on the compressibility of the data (according to the manufacturer, these should be 2100MB/s and 1100MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

Here, two sequential and two random performance tests are performed, similar to the ones performed on the AS SSD.
