Crystalmark is a useful benchmark to measure theoretical performance levels of hard drives and SSD’s. We are using V5.2.1 x64.
The Toshiba SSD is very quick indeed. The sequential read rate of 2,371MB/sec is phenomenal, and makes for extremely fast boot times and software loading.
The 1TB HGST Travlestar Z5K1000 hard disk is quite speedy for a 2.5in SATA notebook drive. However, the sequential read rate of 111MB/sec is 20 times slower than the SSD.
