A better examination would be to look at what happens when the drive is bombarded with large-file-size sequential throughput and small-file random reads and writes. By doing this we can expose any weakness in the controller and NAND setup.
The drives go through an hour of preconditioning before running the benchmarks below.
Sequential speeds match up with what we've seen in other benchmarks.
It's sustained random operations per second once the drives have gone through a basic precondition that can differentiate the better SSDs from the inferior ones. OCZ continues to have decent performance.
