Patriot Pyro SE 240GB & Wildfire 240GB 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.

Fantastic overall results, placing both drives at the top of the performance chart as shown above. The WildFire 240GB drive has the overall performance edge thanks to the 4k-64Thrd read test result (242.32 MB/s), but other areas (seq write, 4k read) show the Pyro SE 240GB winning.

Above, some comparison results from other leading solid state drives.
