PCPer File Copy Test
Our custom PCPer-FC test does some fairly simple file creation and copy routines in order to test the storage system for speed. The script creates a set of files of varying sizes, times the creation process, then copies the same files to another partition on the same hard drive and times the copy process as well. There are four file patterns that we used to try and find any strong or weak points in the hardware: 10 files @ 1000 MB each, 100 files @ 100 MB each, 500 files @ 10 MB each and 1000 files at 1 MB each.
File creation speeds track with the previous generation RevoDrive 3 x2, while file copies see a bump in speed.
Allyn, great review as
Allyn, great review as always. What was your reasoning behind adding the P3700 instead of the P3500 which, as you said, is the competition here? Unless I am mistaken, the IOPS on the OCZ RevoDrive are ~2x that of the P3500 drive.
Also, how soon is NVME support expected to arrive for motherboards? Would x99 platform would a reasonable guess?
Thanks!
The P3500 has not yet been
The P3500 has not yet been sampled, so we have no P3500 figures to include (yet!).
This drive is amazing.
This drive is amazing. :drool:
Hey Allyn, any thoughts on if
Hey Allyn, any thoughts on if OCZ has driver priorities for Win 7 at this point? Most enthusiasts and benchers are on Windows 7. Having benchmarks (2D and 3D, not SSD)on this drive would be pretty amazing.
Well, OCZ prioritized Window
Well, OCZ prioritized Window 7 development enough to include a special filter driver to add TRIM support to 7. They could have opted to support TRIM under only Windows 8 and up, but didn't, which is telling.
Hei Allyn, Do you know if it
Hei Allyn, Do you know if it can run on windows 2012 R2?
amazing review btw 🙂
