Benchmarks: AS SSD Benchmark


AS SSD Benchmark's sequential read and write results reaffirm what we saw in CrystalDiskMark. While the RAID0 configuration offered a healthy gain, the Pyro drives were still a fair way off from the Vertex 3 and HyperX. The single Pyro was the worst performing flash drive, sitting nearly 20MB/s below the SSDNow V+.


AS SSD Benchmark's 4K-64 thread test is the first synthetic benchmark we've seen where the Pyro in RAID0 nearly matches the HyperX and Vertex 3, though single drive performance was still mediocre at best.


The Pyro is on par with all SSDs in having a millisecond access time and the RAID0 setup made no big difference.
