Western Digital Black2 Dual Drive Review

Testing – CrystalDiskMark & AS SSD
CrystalDiskMark is our next test and it has a sequential read / write test as well as a 512k and 4k random read / write test. The SSD is up first.

Here we can see sequential read and write scores of 426.2 MB/s and 148.8 MB/s respectively. Now for the 1TB hard drive.

Again great scores right up around 115-116 MB/s.

Our final test is the AS SSD Benchmark. This benchmark contains four synthetic as well as three practice tests. Again, the SSD test is first.
