AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed with a 5 GB file. A total score of 6695 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	4309,08 MB/s	3638,50 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	67,39 MB/s	221,49 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	1771,53 MB/s	2704,27 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,016 ms	0,086 ms
Score	2270	3290
Total score	6695

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 January 24, 2024 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	1948,00 MB/s	1,18 s
Program many small files	1143,55 MB/s	6,16 s
Game small and large files	1935,31 MB/s	3,57 s

Compression Performance Test

Here, the writing and reading speed of the the KIOXIA SSDSSD is measured depending on the compressibility of the data (according to the manufacturer, these should be 5000MB/s and 3900MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

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