What is your AS SSD Benchmark score?

i don't have any samsung software or whatnot. dunno if it work with server releases of windows so...

I'm using Samsung Magician and with that I can turn on "Rapid Mode", but somehow Schmuckly and some others are getting extreme numbers in this benchmark.
I was choosing between a 512GB crucial or an 500GB Evo, I choose the little bit more expensive Evo (laptop kit) which came with a usb to sata cable to transfer my data and it has the rapid mode once I installed the software.

My OS is on a slower LiteOn SSD, no tuning tricks for this SSD.
 
Not gonna lie, i can't really wrap my head around this... anyone know why this is so high? the Samsung Magician tool was also showing 4800+ mb/s..

(i'm a bit disappointed with 4k... wonder how fast it will be on a PCIe Raid card...)

No fancy rapid mode on these puppies:)
 
Been awhile since I posted this topic. I can tell everyone that since then I have discovered that gamers, video editors and 3D app users all benefit the most from SSD drives. Having said that, I also realize that Sata II or Sata III motherboards will double, triple and quadruple (file transfer speeds). Meaning, anything above 225 to 300 sequential read/write is more than enough speed for 90% of the above mentioned users.

New Sata III motherboards with 6GB file transfer speeds can give the user 500 to 700 sequential read/write scores.

My conclusion in based on the average speed of an HDD. Usually 80 to 100 sequential read/write scores.

So IMHO there is nothing else needed other than a modern SSD for an upgrade on any motherboard. Great to have super-speed from an SSD but in the end, spending more than the cost of one or two nice SSD drives is spending money that could go to other areas of your computer station.

PrimoCache is 'da bomb!

I thought my computer was fast, even before I got the SSD. Then it was even quicker but, I could see my scores were low.

I thought, "Oh well, it is fine. It was worth the upgrade." But then, today, I decided to try out this program.

WOW! Now my investment, plus the $29.95 for Primo, is definitely paying off!! Downloads, are lightning quick, web pages load much, much faster and my boot time is under 5 seconds, my previous record time.

I have had RAM Disks that sped some things up but, they are a bit iffy with only 8GB's of RAM available. This thing solves that like a miracle!! I wish I had done this a while ago!! I keep thinking of the time I wasted while downloading movies, in the past.

Now I want to find another film to test it out!!

:D

OK. Again. What do you use your computer for?
 
WCG. Surfing. Downloading Movies. General Tomfoolery. Gaming, Indie games since I only have an HD4000 Graphics on this UltraBook.

Why? Are you gonna trash me because I don't do Video editing or CAD stuffs? I like my computer fast. So far, it has exceeded my expectations. I have four desktops, from a previous era. I bought this when I was in school and it was the best computer of the lot. Now it is even better.

Upgraded memory, WiFi Adapter, SSD and now primo has unlocked the SSD's potential. At a minimal RAM cost.

So, there. :D
 
itt we benchmark ram and pass it off as an ssd benchmark

also ram disks make your downloads go faster

I'm really excited for the next thing that comes out of this amazing thread!/s

You really need not be so defensive. I was simply curious. I know some people's hobby is making the computer as fast as possible to beat other scores on the Internet. Hey man! That's good for business!

I never heard of PrimoCache before, but it does well for ssd benchmarking, thats for sure!

Do what you want, I'll do what I want.

BTW, I didn't think posting my results would result in this. I like what Primo did. So what? I can't post that I like it without being grilled? Called Defensive?

OH, and RAM Disks...Thanks, I am sure that I was unaware off that. Also, this does help with downloads, to an extent that is mention worthy, so far.

Another amazing fact? Neither of you have any knowledge of me. Or my level of Knowledge. That's pretty exciting, no?

:p

Wow! What an insecure person. I think you have found a home in this forum. Not my cup of tea.

By the way Mr. tech-head. How tight is your Cas and Ras?

The topic of this thread is for posting SSD scores with the AS SSD Benchmark tool. Please keep it on topic.

Thank you.
 
Samsung Rapid seems useless to me?
