ASRock A75 Extreme 6 (AMD A75) Motherboard Review

To test, we attached a Patriot Wildfire 120GB SSD to ascertain SATA 6Gbps performance.

A very important part of overall system responsiveness is down to hard drive performance. We use two of our favourite benchmark utilities Crystalmark X64 Edition and HD Tach to rate the Samsung SSD from the onboard SATA controller.

Performance is good, although we couldn't achieve the maximum throughput of this particular drive, regardless of the controller we used.

The ATTO Disk Benchmark performance measurement tool is compatible with Microsoft Windows. Measure your storage systems performance with various transfer sizes and test lengths for reads and writes. Several options are available to customize your performance measurement including queue depth, overlapped I/O and even a comparison mode with the option to run continuously. Use ATTO Disk Benchmark to test any manufacturers RAID controllers, storage controllers, host adapters, hard drives and SSD drives and notice that ATTO products will consistently provide the highest level of performance to your storage.

ATTO measures performance at around 350 MB/s write and 400 MB/s read.
