Since our SSD review benchmark results are presented in alphabetical order, first up on the list are results from one of our favorite benchmarking programs, AIDA64 Extreme Engineer. Just to note, AIDA64 Extreme Engineer is a full synthetic benchmark. As you can see in our graphs above, the OCZ Agility 4 256GB actually did not post particularly high results, just like the OCZ Vertex 4 256GB. I am not entirely sure why, but after some research, it think some programs we use in our standard set of benchmarks do not necessarily always represent the true performance of this drive correctly, and AIDA64 is one of them. We will go into more detail in the next few pages. So let's move on to our ATTO results.
