Finally, AS SSD Benchmark is a great utility to compare sequential and random read / write performance against CrystalDiskMark results.



Based on our results, the Trion 150 480GB gets a total score of 857, with a read score of 251 and a write score of 459.

Here, we are seeing 529MB/s sequential reads and 502MB/s sequential writes, whereas the CrystalDiskMark results showed 552MB/s sequential reads and 524MB/s sequential writes. AS SSD also shows 43MB/s random 4K reads and 88MB/s random 4K writes, whereas CrystalDiskMark showed 35MB/s random 4K reads and 110MB/s random 4K writes. There are definitely some programming differences between the two benchmark tests, but the results are still consistent within OCZ’s rated drive specifications.
