AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed with a 1 GB file. A total score of 640 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	508,99 MB/s	378,57 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	27,32 MB/s	87,65 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	151,91 MB/s	161,76 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,106 ms	0,721 ms

Total score	640

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 10, 2023 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	902,87 MB/s	1,19 s
Program many small files	1181,57 MB/s	1,19 s
Game small and large files	1576,97 MB/s	0,88 s

Compression Performance Test

Here, the writing and reading speed of the the Patriot SATA SSDSSD is measured depending on the compressibility of the data (according to the manufacturer, these should be 450MB/s and 320MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

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