OCZ Vertex 3 240GB MAX IOPS SSD Review

AS SSD is a great free tool designed just for benching Solid State Drives. It performs an array of sequential read and write tests, as well as random read and write tests with sequential access times over a portion of the drive. AS SSD includes a sub suite of benchmarks with various file pattern algorithms but this is difficult in trying to judge accurate performance figures.

The standard OCZ Vertex 3 leads the way with the sequential read and write tests however the MAX IOPS version of the drive scores a staggering 252 MB/s in the 4k-64Thrd read test, considerably more than the other drives. This boosts the overall read score from 251 points to 323 points.
