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.
AS SSD uses incompressible data so the results are lower than with other tests today. That said, we can see how much this particular Sandforce controller lags behind in regards to overall performance and throughput. Not very impressive results when considering the competition.
