AS SSD Benchmark

Standard performance test

The standard test was performed using a 1 GB file. A total score of 201 points was achieved.

AS SSD	Read:	Write:
Seq in megabytes per second	342,55 MB/s	328,02 MB/s
4K in megabytes per second	15,45 MB/s	22,23 MB/s
4K-64Thrd in megabytes per second	23,61 MB/s	29,12 MB/s
Access time in milliseconds	0,115 ms	0,361 ms
Score	73	84
Total score	201

Copy Performance Test

A common everyday situation is simulated here. Three test folders are created:

• ISO (folder with two large files)
• Program (folder with many small files)
• Game (folder with small and large files)

The three folders are copied using the Windows Copy command (the cache remains enabled). The practical test of August 12, 2021 shows the performance for simultaneous write and read operations. The lower the duration, the better the performance.

AS SSD Copy-Benchmark	Transfer rate:	Duration:
ISO two large files	246,33 MB/s	4,36 s
Program many small files	78,78 MB/s	17,86 s
Game small and large files	168,66 MB/s	8,19 s

Compression Performance Test

This measures the write and read speed of the the Transcend USB flash driveSSD is measured depending on the compressibility of the data (according to the manufacturer, these should be 420MB/s and 400MB/s respectively).

CrystalDiskMark Benchmark

Here, two sequential and two random performance tests are performed, similar to the ones performed on the AS SSD.

CDM	Read [MB/s]	Write [MB/s]
SEQ1M Q8T1	348,59	357,45
SEQ1M Q1T1	323,50	334,48
RND4K Q32T16	25,34	33,94
RND4K Q1T1	16,49	24,30

HD Tune Pro Endurance test

This is a long term test to make full use of the memory capacity. You can see when a cache is full and the writing performance decreases.

HD Tune Pro Benchmark

HD Tune writes a 1 GB file to the 128 GB Transcend USB flash drive. The transfer data of the read speed is displayed graphically. The minimum, maximum and average values are also determined. The determined access time and burst rate are also displayed.

ATTO Disk Benchmark

Here, a 256 MB file is written several times to the 128 GB Transcend USB flash drive. The I/O block size varies (from 512 bytes to 64 megabytes). The larger the blocks, the faster they can be written and read.

SSD-Z Benchmark

Similar to HD Tune, a 500 MB file is written to the 128 GB Transcend USB flash drive here. The transfer data is displayed. The more constant the line, the better.

The benchmark test was performed on August 12, 2021.
