Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB Solid State Drive Review

Testing – Anvil & AS SSD
The next test is Anvil Storage Utilities, which is a really great piece of software.  The SSD benchmark gives you scores for both read and write as well as a combined score.

I’m not really sure why the write speeds were so low on this test.  I ran the test quite a few times and still got the same results.  I’m not sure if the V300 just does not like this software or what.

Our final test is the AS SSD Benchmark. This benchmark contains four synthetic as well as three practice tests. It also not only shows you the transfer speeds but also IOPS.

The AS SSD program has a copy benchmark included with it.  This benchmark shows you the speed and how long it would take to load an ISO, Program and Game.  Here are the results from that test, lower times are better.

AS SSD also has a compression benchmark included.  Here are the results from that test.
