Kingston HyperX 3K 240GB Solid State Drive Review

Testing – Sandra Physical Disks & Anvil
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.

Good results on both tests.

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.

We used Anvil’s threaded I/O test to benchmark IOPS.  The block size was set at 4k and the queue depth was set at 32.
