Testing – Sandra Physical Disks & AIDA64
Sandra Physical Disks benchmark is built into SiSoftware’s Sandra software suite. It tests drive performance and gives you a drive score and random access time.
A new test we have added to our solid state drive testing is the AIDA64 Disk Benchmark. We will be running both the linear read and linear write tests.
The linear read test did great having an average speed of 746MB/s. Now the write test on the other hand performed very sub-par with an average speed of 151.9MB/s, you can see the dropoff in the graph as well. This may be an issue with AIDA64 and the RevoDrive, I am not certain though.
Great review! You should update all 4 of the drives to the latest 1.32 Firmware via the instructions on OCZ’s forums. You will see performance increases across the board.
