Vyses1 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) So i got a single Mushikin Chronos Deluxe 240 Gig SSD http://www.newegg.co...N82E16820226226 this things tears it up, I dont even get to watch windows load anymore but it seems like benchmarks are all over the place. Atto however is very consistant,. here are some pics of the scores. My question is, why does Atto read the true speed and crystal mark and AS SSD are reading like in the 240ish region, Atto clearing reads 500 - 550ish This is the weird one, crystal mark also registers low writes too.

Joe C Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Although this is for ocz drives, the same applies for most other ssd drives too. Everyone has their own idea of what constitutes ‘intended’ usage. And where Benchmarking fits in to usage, to show speed, or analyze faults. All SSD have a life span based on Program Erase Cycles (PEc). These in turn are triggered by writes to the nand flash blocks/pages. Benchmarks like Crystal Disk Mark and AS SSD should be used sparingly. They write a considerable amount of un-compressible data to your OCZ SSD. Careful use is advised, particularly with Sandforce controller SSD. This because they encrypt and compress data "on-the-fly".

Vyses1 Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) That doesnt answer my question, though thank you for the information, I also read under normal conditions current ssds have enough reads/write cycles to last roughly 30 years... then there is trim which helps with this too collecting junk making sure the ssd is clean.

caintry_boy Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Just be sure to NEVER defrag it, and let it sit idle at the BIOS main page or the login page about once a week for about an hour (maybe 2) so that the TRIM runs... Link to post Share on other sites
Vyses1 Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 I thought win7 did it automatically? and i ment i fixed the post, not my scores. Link to post Share on other sites
