Acer SA100 1.92TB SSD Review

IOMeter is another open-source synthetic benchmarking tool that is able to simulate the various loads placed on hard drive and solid-state drive technology.

We test with both random read and write 4k tests, as shown above. There are many ways to measure the IOPS performance of a Solid State Drive, so our results will sometimes differ from the manufacturer’s quoted ratings. We do test all drives in exactly the same way, so the results are directly comparable.

The Acer SA100 is rated as up to 76,000 IOPS for reads and up to 77,000 IOPS for writes. Unfortunately, we couldn't get close to those figures with our tests. The best read figure we saw was 59,144 IOPS while the best write figure of 61,186 IOPS was a little nearer to the official figure.
