AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed with a 1 GB file. A total score of 611 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	514,50 MB/s	446,56 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	30,56 MB/s	89,38 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	117,30 MB/s	166,30 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,045 ms	0,118 ms
Score	199	300
Total score	611

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 December 04, 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	944,48 MB/s	1,14 s
Program many small files	1169,01 MB/s	1,20 s
Game small and large files	1531,38 MB/s	0,90 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 550MB/s and 490MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

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