Testing (continued):
AS SSD Benchmark 1.9.5986:
The final benchmark software we will look at is the AS SSD; this benchmark is specifically designed for SSDs and will provide a speed rating for writing large files, a mix of large and small and mostly small. For the ISO score below two large files were written and read simultaneously. In this test the Crucial MX300 was the fastest drive with a 421MB/s score which is 4% faster than the next fastest drive.
This next test predicts how well the drive can read and write several small files simultaneously. Again the Crucial MX300 is the clear winner with a speed of 287.9MB/s which is about 25% faster than the second place finisher.
Finally we have the game score which predicts how well the drive can handle reading and writing large and small files simultaneously. Again in this final test the Crucial MX300 bested them all with a 380.3MB/s score. This was 10% faster than the second place PNY drive.
