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. Unlike full synthetic motor oil, this usually does not carry a good connotation, but it does provide valuable insight into performance between different drives and different controllers. As you can see in our graphs above, the Barefoot 3 based OCZ Vector may not be the undisputed winner in every benchmark, but it is consistently among the top. Delivering linear read results of about 526.1MB/s, random read of 569MB/s, and buffered read of 497MB/s, it is quite a bit better than the Vertex 4. Its average access time of 0.04ms is the best we have tested so far here at APH Networks.
