AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed with a 5 GB file. A total score of 7009 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	6169,83 MB/s	5750,41 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	69,11 MB/s	174,45 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	2507,38 MB/s	1455,50 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,022 ms	0,265 ms
Score	3193	2205
Total score	7009

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 August 28, 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	300000,00 MB/s	5526530,00 s
Program many small files	3806010,00 MB/s	10055,00 s
Game small and large files	21114,00 MB/s	32,00 s

Compression Performance Test

Here, the writing and reading speed of the the Patriot SSDSSD is measured depending on the compressibility of the data (according to the manufacturer, these should be 7400MB/s and 6400MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

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