Hi Anvil, I hope we are going to see the snazzy 3D surface profile graphs
If you have chance have a look at the Iometer benchmarks from the Vertex 2 EX. There were produced by DDRdrive for the 2010 Open Storage summit. They seem to have gone out there way to expose the Achilles heel, but it reveals some interesting results nonetheless.
Interesting also to see the hex code for the "repeating byte" test
Edit: The benchmarks linked above were without trim. Benchmarks were also run with trim:
'Specifications are knowingly disingenuous'
Regarding TRIM, a means for Windows to tell the SSD controller about deleted data in the SSD, DDRdrive's George said: "I did run the exact same tests on Windows 7 (which does support TRIM) and the OCZ results do marginally increase. But the overall trend line stays constant; *dramatic* IOPS degradation relative to published specifications. Basically, unless one uses a development version of Iometer, which happens to default to a contrived data pattern, the published specifications are knowingly disingenuous."
The Register
Hi overthere. Thanks for the links.
Edit: I guess you have seen this?
