  4. Testing - ATTO, CrystalDiskMark & Sandra
  5. Final Thoughts


ATTO Disk Benchmark is our next test which measures transfer rates across specific lengths.

As you can see ATTO was pretty much spot on, the last 4 tests were almost identical giving us write speeds of 190MB/s and read speeds of 237MB/s. CrystalDiskMark has a sequential read / write test as well as a 512k and 4k random read / write test.

As you can see the drive performed very well in this test. Our final test is Sandra’s Physical Disks benchmark that will test the drive bandwidth and access time.

Once again very good results, almost spot on with the advertised speeds.

    I read here about a second generation of V+ series. How can it be distinguished from the first V+ generation? I am not able to find anything about this second generation on Kingston's website. Is it about firmware? What firmware version does the tested unit have? This generation thing is rather confusing considering no difference in product name. The review here doesn't bother to tell something useful about this issue.

    According to the PR, the difference should be TRIM support and better performance. Of course, the package also has changed. http://www.kingston.com/anz/press/2010/product/...

    Any idea, if could be this SSD compatible with Mac Mini (Intel based, model late 2009, MAC OS X operating system)?

    REALY, I think the temps are too high. my PC runs at 23 C now a great cooler and fan with the case nto fit the 3 1/2 in slot, mightn br ideal. I ove fans and watercoolers, get out of the 1980ies and provide us customers with a more practical solid state HARD DRIVE with a cool 5 year replacement warrenty, heat kills all PCs and laptops.price is no problem if all is made correctly.(it's not impossible ) OK :) an old builder of quality :)
