Solid state drives are recognized for the superior speed (up to 60%) compared with the classid Hdd. But when you choose a SSD, choose teh best one, so you must have a tool to measure the performance. The AS SSD Benchmark it is am easy to use utility which analyzes some factors to detect the effectiveness of any solid state drive (SSD) connected to a computer.
Measure the speed
The SSD is faster than a regulr or classic HDD. This tool allows you to view exactly its speed in real time so you can compare it with previous HDD or with other SSD hardware products.
It is a small executable that runs on a computer without the need for routine installation. After double-clicking, it opens up a minimalistic interface that allows the user to start testing the SSD drive immediately. After clicking the start button, the application perform “4K”, “4K-64Thrd” and Access Time tests on the SSD and presents an SSD score at completion.
The 4k tests analyze the read and write capabilities of randomly-chosen 4k blocks, and the Seq test evaluates how fast the SSD can read a 1-gigabyte file. The program gives you an insight into the capabilities of your SSD drive and can be useful in streamlining superior SSD drive models.
AS SSD Benchmark is licensed as freeware for PC or laptop with Windows 32 bit and 64 bit operating system. It is in benchmark category and is available to all software users as a free download.
